Kidd and Kidd -- A Classification System for Glass Beads for the Use of Field Archaeologists
BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers, 2012
As a result of examination of numerous collections of glass beads in northeastern North America and elsewhere, and as a result of a study of the procedures used in their manufacture, the authors propose a classification and nomenclature which they hope will permit exact descriptions and a reference base for all beads found in archaeological excavations. New bead types may be added to the system which is expansible to accommodate all possible variations.

Guide to the Description and Classification of Glass Beads Found in the Americas
BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers, 2012
This guide provides information relevant to the description and classification of glass beads recovered from archaeological sites in North and South America and the Caribbean. It is partly based on and intended to be used with “A Classification System for Glass Beads for the Use of Field Archaeologists,” by Kenneth and Martha Kidd. Material presented includes a critical evaluation of several bead classification schemes, an overview of bead manufacturing techniques, a descriptive listing of the various classes and types of beads that have been recorded to date, and an explication of the physical attributes of a bead, as well as interpretative material concerning dating and likely origins.
