Additional Information:

In Medieval Europe Ammonites were called “Snakestones” and were believed to be coiled snakes turned to stone— they were used to help neutralize poisons
Native American tribes of the Great Plains carried Ammonites to heal injuries, and to bring good fortune in travel, relationships, hunting, and for victory in battle
The Blackfoot Nation, it is believed, called Ammonites “Iniskim” or “Buffalo Calling Stone” and associated them with a legend of a harsh winter when food was scarce and starvation was near— this stone was discovered through a dream by a woman of the tribe; prayers were made, and a herd of buffalo returned to sustain them
It was believed to bring great abundance and prosperity, as well as bearing the energy of great potential to grow or bring about what you need for fulfillment

The fossilized remains of marine mollusks (cephalopods), creatures related to the octopus and squid, although more closely resembling the chambered nautilus in appearance
Existing for more than 300 million years during the Paleozoic to the Cretaceous era, they were abundantly widespread in the world’s oceans between 66 million to over 400 million years ago
More than 10,000 documented species, ranging in size from a few millimeters to more than 11 feet in diameter, have been found making them useful as index fossils: to help determine the age of other fossils in the surrounding stratum area; when Ammonites died, they drifted to the bottom of the ocean where their mineralized shells were easily preserved
Ammolite is the rare gem quality variety of Ammonite, displaying bright flashes of iridescent color much like opal. This is a result of nacre (mother of pearl: the substance making up the shell), being exposed to high temperatures and pressures over millions of years. Under very specific conditions the nacre transforms into fine layers of aragonite which diffuse, bend, and reflect back the light in different colors.
Although Ammonites are found worldwide, high quality Ammolite is primarily from Alberta, Canada; lesser quality Ammolite can also be found in Saskatchewan, Canada; Montana, U.S.A; England; and Madagascar
Its name is derived from one of the earliest known references of the fossil, the Naturæ Historiæ (Naturalis Historia) written by Roman naturalist and philosopher, Pliny the Elder in 77 CE: he named the fossil ammonis cornua or Horns of Ammon— after the curling ram’s horns of the Egyptian god Ammon/Amun
The ram’s horns in early Roman times was viewed as a symbol of supremacy and power— kings, emperors, and even the Roman god Jupiter came to be depicted with the Horns of Ammon, after adopting the symbol from Egypt
Ammon/Amun is also the Egyptian god for whom Pharaoh Tutankhamun is named

Availability: Rare

Caution: Excess water exposure may cause the structure of the stone to break down over time. Use nothing abrasive, stone will scratch. Avoid extreme temperature changes. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners— will damage stone.
