Jewelery appears in all periods of history, from the dawn of Man. Recently, shells with 100,000 years have been found that have been transformed into beads, thus being the earliest pieces of jewelery known. Although, in the early days, pieces of jewelry were created for more practical uses, such as attaching pieces of clothing together, in more recent times it is mostly used for decoration.

The first pieces of jewelry were made of natural materials such as bones and teeth of animals, shells, wood and carved stones. At this time, jewelery was made especially for people with a high importance to demonstrate social status. Most of the time, people were buried with them.
