Celt before 16th century Maya () Greenstone axe heads, commonly known as “celts,” were some of the most important works of art across ancient Mesoamerica and Central America. Created from jadeite mined from the Motagua River Valley of southern Guatemala, or using local green stones from highland Mexico, celts were first created by the Olmec peoples of the Gulf Coast after 1000 B.C. The Olmec conceived of green celts as sprouts of maize and thus “planted” celts in dedicatory offerings, activating ceremonial spaces and perpetuating agricultural fertility. For the later Maya peoples, celts also served as dedicatory materials, but more so as adornments for the royal bodies of kings and queens. Often the celts would be thinned into celt-shaped plaques, strung together in pairs and triads in order to create belt assemblages that would have clinked with the sound of jades striking one another. Tombs from the Classic Period (ca. AD 250-900) contain celts of jadeite and various greenstones fro

Cowrie shell 332-30 BC Ptolemaic Period Cowries are known from the very earliest times in Egypt, but this shell - from a Ptolemaic burial at Akhmim - testifies to their continued significance through the millennia. The shell was found next to the head of a male mummy adorned with cartonnage ornaments and inside a wooden coffin. The back of the shell has been ground away, so that the shell can lie flat when strung so possibly it was originally worn as a diadem or necklace.Cowrie shells, originating usually from the Red Sea, were widely valued as amulets in the ancient world. Their resemblance to the female vulva and alternatively to a squinting eye is thought to underlie a magical association with fertility and with protection from the evil eye, respectively. Generally they are known from female burials in Egypt, but they can also accompany males.. Cowrie shell. 332-30 BC. Shell. Ptolemaic Period.
