The amulet concept derives from amulētum, a Latin word. An amulet is an element that a person treasures and that he usually carries with him since he believes that it offers protection or good luck.
For example: “This medal is my amulet: my grandmother gave it to me and it always protects me”, “Tomorrow I have to take an exam and I will take the amulet that Jorge gave me”, “Take this stone: it is an amulet that will keep the evil of your life ”.
Amulets work by superstition: the subject believes in their power beyond what is indicated by reason, science or even religion. This power that is attributed to the amulet is supernatural because it exceeds the laws of nature.
The origins of the amulets are linked to the human history itself. Prehistoric man treasured amulets in order to protect himself from all kinds of evil. Those first amulets used to be wood, rocks or other natural objects that had some physical peculiarity (their color, their shape, etc.).
Over the years, the amulets began to be objects that had been the protagonists of a special event or that were given by certain people. A soldier who finds a strange stone on the battlefield and returns home safe and sound may consider the stone to be an amulet, to name one possibility. A young man, on the other hand, may believe that a coin his late grandfather gave him has the power of an amulet.
