Definition
The hard, round seed of the bonduc plant, sometimes used as a bead or in games.
Etymology
From 'bonduc' (the plant) + 'nut' (the seed). The term reflects how English speakers adapted the Portuguese/Sanskrit name and combined it with the English word for seed.
Kelly Says
These seeds are so hard and uniform that they were the original 'computer memory'—some historians suggest they inspired early bead-based counting systems that eventually evolved into mechanical calculation devices.
