Day 05- Blue Eye Bead

Day 05 - Blue Eye Bead

The blue bead has risen to prominence as a cultural icon in contemporary Turkey. The history of glass making in the Mediterranean is intertwined with the birthplace of the bead. Inscriptions and beads from the 16th century B.C. have been found. Beads made of glass were produced and utilized in many different ancient cultures, from Mesopotamia to Egypt, Carthage and Phoenicia to Persia, and even throughout the Roman Empire. 

There is no accurate historical confirmation on the origin of the blue bead or even its benefits and reflection on human life, as it is like all the legends that were passed down through generations, father and grandfather, and turned into customs and traditions over time without evidence and proof. And people believe in it, according to some psychologists, because man since ancient times has been trying to adhere to some beliefs, even if they are not directly related to religion, to feel reassured and comfortable.
