👉 Pendant research involves the systematic study and analysis of pendants, focusing on their historical, cultural, archaeological, and material properties. Researchers examine pendants from various time periods and regions to understand their symbolism, craftsmanship, and significance in different societies. This research often combines methods from archaeology, anthropology, art history, and materials science to uncover insights into ancient trade routes, social hierarchies, religious practices, and technological advancements. By analyzing the context in which pendants were found, such as burial sites or settlements, scholars can piece together narratives about the people who created and used them, as well as their broader cultural and historical landscapes.
