For bells in Palmyra see Dorothy Mackay "Jewellery from Palmyra and its significance", in: Iraq Vol. 11, No. 2 (Autumn, 1949), pp. 160-187 (40 pages)Published By: British Institute for the Study of Iraq D. Mackay pp. 174-175 “Other favorite amulets were a small perforated disk and a little bell. One of the latter is seen on a bracelet worn by Marti, daughter of Jarhai [Istanbul, Museum of Antiquities, no 3794]. These bell amulets have been found in considerable numbers in Roman Syria and Palestine, of different sizes and shapes, and apparently all of bronze; some which are cast and of some thickness, are ornamented with bearded faces on opposite sides [they are on exhibition of the American University of Beirut].”
