Wampum was used by North American Indians as a medium of exchange, for ornaments, and for ceremonial and sometimes spiritual purposes, esp. such beads when white but also including the more valuable black or dark-purple varieties. The intense hardness and brittleness of the materials made it impossible to wear, grind, and bore the shell by machinery alone.
