Turquoise has importance to many people and tribes worldwide. The Apache believed that turquoise helped warriors and hunters to aim accurately. The Pima consider it to bring good fortune and strength and that it helped overcome illness and Zuni believed that it protected them from demons. Pueblo Indians thought that its color was stolen from the sky, while Navajos consider it as good fortune to wear and believe it could appease the Wind Spirit. In Hopi legend the lizard who travels between the above and the below, excretes turquoise and that the stone can hold back floods, while in Asia it was considered protection against the evil eye. Tibetans carved turquoise into ritual objects as well as wearing it in traditional jewelry. Ancient manuscripts from Persia, India, Afghanistan, and Arabia report that the health of a person wearing turquoise can be assessed by variations in the color of the stone. Turquoise was also thought to promote prosperity. In Europe even today, turquoise rings are given as forget-me-not gifts. From this we can see because of it's attractive beauty, turquoise has had a great importance and increasing popularity.
