Renowned historian James W. Lankton will be at The Bead Museum on Tuesday, May 18, 2010.
With a deep passion for beads, bead technique and bead history, Lankton is one of the top bead historians in our country today. A former Medical Doctor, he retired from active practice to obtain a degree in Archeology. Since then he has become best known for his interest and knowledge of the technical aspect of bead making. He has authored the book “A Bead Timeline – Volume 1: Prehistory to 1200 CE” which can be found at The Bead Museum gift store.
