Abstract
GEMS & GEMOLOGY FALL 2021 T is an opaque, blue to green gem material that has been worn, used, and appreciated by different civilizations for thousands of years. Originally called piruzeh in Persian, the gem has spiritual value in Persian culture is such that its name carries the meanings of victory, triumph, and prosperity. In Persian literature, turquoise has been celebrated by poets, and various legends and beliefs are associated with it (Vinogradov et al., 1966). Archeological discoveries from the Deh Luran Plain in western Iran indicate that turquoise was first utilized around 7000 BCE (Hole et al., 1969). The quantity of turquoise artifacts discovered in burial sites suggests the importance of this mineral in this ancient civilization’s traditions. While the estimated age of these artifacts is valid, no scientific study has linked them to any specific deposit. PERSIAN TURQUOISE: THE ANCIENT TREASURE OF NEYSHABUR
2021秋季宝石与宝石T是一种不透明的蓝绿色宝石材料，数千年来一直被不同文明佩戴、使用和欣赏。这颗宝石在波斯语中最初被称为piruzeh，在波斯文化中具有精神价值，因此它的名字带有胜利、胜利和繁荣的含义。在波斯文学中，诗人们一直在赞美绿松石，各种传说和信仰都与之有关（Vinogradov et al.，1966）。伊朗西部德卢兰平原的考古发现表明，绿松石最早使用于公元前7000年左右（Hole et al.，1969）。在埋葬地点发现的大量绿松石文物表明了这种矿物在这个古老文明传统中的重要性。虽然这些文物的估计年龄是有效的，但没有科学研究将它们与任何特定的矿床联系起来。波斯绿松石：尼沙布尔的古老宝藏
