    Jewlery History", a research paper done about 25 years ago... 

          "Even as far in the past as primitive man, jewelry took on
          this role in a variety of forms.. Small objects were of primary
          importance, with some examples being found in the early
          Neolithic strata of the caverns in Mas d=92Avil. It was here tha=
t
          many pierces stags=92 teeth were discovered, often still in the
          shape of a necklace with its holding twine long
          sincedisintegrated."
