Shell ornaments are among the oldest forms of human adornment ever recorded — archaeological evidence places them at burial sites and trade routes dating back tens of thousands of years. In ancient Egypt, shells were carried inland from the Red Sea and Mediterranean coasts and worn as amulets, their origin in water connecting them to the forces of the Nile and the lunar cycle. They appeared in the jewelry of commoners and royalty alike, one of the few materials that crossed every social boundary. — Aldred, C., Jewels of the Pharaohs, Thames & Hudson, 1971
