$6.49 Shipping Location: Lummi Island, United States TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish Genuine Natural Handcrafted 2mm ... moreGreek Black Leather Cord/Necklace with Solid Sterling Silver Ends. Perfect for Use with Amulets or Pendants. SIZE: Diameter: 2mm. Length: 20 inches. All measurements approximate. DETAIL: A high quality 2mm black leather cord with sterling silver fasteners. The cord is produced in Greece following leather-making traditions which are thousands of years old. Leather making is an ancient art that has been practiced for more than 7.000 years. Together with wood, leather formed the basis of much ancient technology. Prehistoric and primitive peoples preserved pelts with grease and smoke and used them chiefly for shoes, garments, furniture, scrolls, gloves, coverings, body armor, helmets, shields, slings, cord, tents, and containers. Ancient cords were used to mount and wear amulets and pendants. Besides strips of leather, cords were oftentimes made of bark strips such as from the cedar or from the sinew(tendon) of an animal. Ropes were made by twisting two fibers together, in opposite directions, which causes the individual strands to lock(press) onto each other making a stronger. The process of leather making treats animal skins and hides so as to preserve them and make them suitable for use. Tanning converts the otherwise perishable skin to a stable and nondecaying material. Though the skins of such diverse animals as ostrich. Lizard, eel, and kangaroo have been used, the more common leathers come from cattle, including calf and ox; sheep and lamb; goat and kid; horse, mule, and zebra; buffalo; pig and hog; and seal, walrus, whale, and alligator. One of the more remarkable leather arts involved cordwain, once a synonym to Cordovan, meaning"from Córdoba" Painted or gilded embossed leather decoration for walls, a 12th century north African style, was introduced to Spain(hence it is sometimes referred to as'Spanish leather' Around the turn of the 1

We might also have different editions as well(some paperback, some hardcover, oftentimes international editions) If you don’t see what you want, please contact us and ask. We’re happy to send you a summary of the differing conditions and prices we may have for the same title. DESCRIPTION: Paperback. Publisher: Shire(2008) Pages: 64. The scarab is the single most abundant artifact to have survived from ancient Egypt and hundreds of thousands. If not millions, were made throughout the course of Egyptian history. Today, scarabs continue to be found on excavations throughout Egypt and thousands reside in museum collections around the world. This volume examines these ubiquitous and important artifacts by first considering the unique biology and behavior of the scarab beetle and its incorporation into Egyptian symbolism, religion and art. The development of the scarab amulet is then considered, and the many types of scarab produced by the Egyptians are surveyed. Two particularly important classes of scarab- the heart scarab and the commemorative scarab- are examined in detail. Finally, the export of Egyptian scarabs and their imitation by the nations around Egypt is examined as a tangible mark of the extent of Egypt's influence in the ancient world and of the importance of the scarab itself.
