An authoptic examination allowed to identify the rock types and in some cases their probable supply area. The study of stone materials is supported by a chrono-typological examination of the objects, and a graphic and photographic documentation has also been created. The comparisons research was carried out throughout the Mediterranean area and made it possible to distinguish between groups of local beads and pendants (of local production and distribution) and groups of aegean objects. This work has made possible a chronological classification of these objects, some of which arrived in Sicily through oversease trade routes. This study has allowed to solve some issues related to the Aegean imports in Italy and the socio-economic role played by ornamental in the indigenous communities of the Bronze Age.
