On July 31st 1715 11 Spanish galleons went down in one day in a hurricane just off the shoreline close to my home.
Interaction with the Natives was inevitable for the survivors.
Some Natives.."the Ais" tribe even helped them salvage the wrecks.
Tons of gold and silver bound for Spain went down with them...but so did alot of the first glass the Ais had ever had access to..or Mabey ever saw.
Here is some examples of what they did with it.

Something different huh?
I'm out of town but will post some others when I get back.
 
I found few beads in the area but did manage some.
