The Amazonite stone owes its name to the river, because it is said that it was discovered in large quantities in a river in the Amazon. However, studies have shown that there has been confusion with another stone.
On the other hand, it has been established that amazonite is one of the fine stones used for thousands of years. Countless pieces of jewelry dating back to the Neolithic era were made with this stone and found in Jordan. Since Antiquity, we have found traces of this stone in Mesopotamia, India, Egypt, Sudan, etc.
In Mesopotamia, this stone was attributed to Tiamat, goddess of salt waters, oceans and chaos. According to Babylonian mythology, this goddess is at the origin of creation. Following her union with the god of fresh waters, she gave birth to the first gods.
In Egypt, Amazonite was used to make jewelry and amulets. It was used in jewelry and was even found in the tomb of Tutankhamun on a ring in the shape of a scarab.

Part of the writings from the Book of the Dead were engraved on Amazonite.
Among the Navajo Indians in North America, this stone honored the goddess Estsanatlehi, at the origin of the creation of Man. It also has protective functions. She is sometimes called Earth Goddess. Throughout the year, its appearance changes with the seasons. It passes from youth to maturity and from maturity to old age. Each winter, it is very weakened and it regains all its vitality in spring.
Another legend from Greek mythology says that this stone was named amazonite to pay tribute to Amazon warriors and their courage. They carried shields decorated with this stone to protect them and give them strength. Thus, the Greeks also decorated their shields with amazonite to obtain protection, courage and strength.
Research has shown that this stone was mainly widespread in the Sahara. Around 8,000 BC, this region was very green and welcoming. Archaeologists have therefore found traces of ancient deposits of amazonite, and even remains of workshops where artisans worked this stone.
Today, amazonite is used in jewelry to create bracelets, pendants, earrings, rings and necklaces. Jewelers keep it in its raw state to bring out its unique patterns.
