Beschreibung
Stones have accompanied the history of humanity since time immemorial. Through examples from ancient advanced cultures such as Mesopotamia and Egypt, or classical and medieval European cultures, this book aims to highlight the cultural and historical significance of gemstones to interested readers. The publication provides insight into the use of stones in the production of amulets and talismans while also informing about the healing effects attributed to stones. An extensive glossary appendix, which reiterates the mineralogical properties, historical facts, and astrological and healing aspects of individual stones, makes this work an indispensable informative book.
