It has been used as ornamentation since antiquity. Mentioned as "callais" in Pliny the Elder's Natural History. During the Crusades, turquoise mined in the deserts around the Atlas Mountains spread to Europe via trade routes through Turkey, hence its name "stone of Turkey." History tells us it was a decorative stone for rulers in ancient Egypt, Aztec, Persian, Mesopotamian, Indus Valley civilizations, Native Americans, and ancient China since at least the Yin Dynasty. The belief that receiving it from another person brings good fortune is also well-known.
