Like the other beads discussed so far, barrel/cylinder beads were made from the columella. They vary from segments in that they are characteristically longer than wide, and they have been ground along their long axis so that they are more symmetrical than the segments. Fifty-four barrel/cylinder beads were recovered from around the chest and neck of Burial 2 at the Fredricks site. They range in length from 12.2-15.4 mm, in diameter from 5.0-8.5 mm, and in thickness from 4.9-7.5 mm. All are badly damaged.
