the shells of mollusks and then stringing them. It was way back in the Middle Stone Age- 75000-100000 years back!

Jewelry became very widespread and used primarily for adornment about 40,000 years back, when mankind started migrating

and trading.

were famous for his or her use of Gold adorned with Lapis Lazuli, Turquoise, Carnelian and Enamels. Additionally they

used gemstone and glass beads. The Egyptians thought that jewelry possessed magical powers and brought good luck.

wearing a ton of rings on the same finger and also the utilization of Jet and coral, among other semi-precious

gemstones. Jewelry was primarily worn by only the most upper class or to defend against evil. The Egyptians, Roman and
