The Egyptians used Lapis for seals, cosmetic purposes and often carved it into vases and figurines. In many cultures, lapis lazuli was regarded as a holy stone. Particularly in the Middle East it was thought to have magical powers. Countless signet rings, scarabs and figures were wrought from the blue stone in Egypt, which Alexander the Great brought to Europe. In Europe the colourfull stone was referred to as ‘ultramarine’, which means something like ‘from beyond the sea’ It is said that the legendary city of Ur on the Euphrates had a lively lapis lazuli trade as long ago as early fourth millennium B.C, the material coming to the land of the two great rivers from the famous deposits in Afghanistan.
