Does it have “Made in China” stamped on the clasp??

Clearly Pre-American Indian. When do they come forward wanting their land back and reparations?

re: Elites in the culture.
Why is it that these 'researchers' try and apply todays culture on ancients?
Is it all possible it was just a fisherman lucky enough to find a gold nugget and took the time to work it up into a wear-pretty?

Isn't it more likely that the gold was a store of wealth — rather than simple adornment? It's not like there were safe-deposit boxes, or on-line savings accounts back then.
To: bruinbirdman
Okay, let’s just play pretend here.
If there were skeletal remains from which DNA could be extracted, and DNA tests show there are direct descendants to this person, hence the necklace, could direct decedents put claims on these artifacts?

This puts the Marxist dialectic into historic perspective, don'tcha know.
It is the historic nature of man.
