What is the Roman Abacus?

An abacus is a counting device that uses beads on a table or string that represent numbers. The device is divided into columns, each column representing a multiple of 10 (x10, x100, x1000 etc.) and each column has 10 beads in it. This enables numbers to be formed by rearranging the beads, this means that simple and complex arithmetic can be performed on the abacus. The abacus was invented around 2,700-2,300 BCE, by the Sumerians (Mesopotamia) ; that makes the invention about 4,400 years old


What is Hank as in seed beads?

Many bead manufactures sell beads in hanks. These are beads strung on string. The manufactures know how much a hank of beads weigh and how many beads per strand depending on the size bead. A hank is usually about 12 strands of beads. This makes it possible to charge per hank. They make up bunches or hanks to sell to stores. Many bead stores break down the hanks in smaller bunches and sell them that way as well. It makes it easy to display the beads because they can hang the hanks on the wall.
