Fossil Coral (agatized coral) |
|
Over time, ancient coral has been gradually replaced with agate. The fossilized coral appears as small “flowers” on the stone. Can be found in brown, gray, black, white, yellow and every once and awhile, red. Most specimens are found in Georgia and Florida (which in 1979 became Florida’s state stone).
Sailors used to wear talismans of fossilized coral to ward off bad weather. People wear coral to ward off the ‘evil eye’, and is commonly associated with the female reproductive system. |
