Annular glass beads were found in grave No. 1 from Nin, dated to the 8th century BC. In 1981 an interesting bichrome glass bead with a decorative zig-zag motif was published and it was associated culturally with the finds of the Iapodic glass jewelry. A bead in the same style, with an ornament executed with a yellow glass thread on dark background was found in Gornji grad in Zagreb in the rescue excavations in the 1990s. A similar bead was recovered from a grave in the tumulus in Budinjak (£¿umberak). This type of yellow ornamented glass beads was called Kompolje type implying among other things its staring point in the area of Lika-Iapodia. Beads with layered polychrome eyes appear only in the final phases of the Liburnian Iron Age (4th-1st century BC).
