I can’t even imagine how it was shaped.
Obsidian shears sharply
Astounding.
I think there were civilizations at least as advanced as the ancient Romans BEFORE the last ice age and the ice age drove them into dust of history.
That would be from 120,000 BC, till 12,000 BC. Just watching programs like “life after people” illustrate how little time it takes to wipe all evidence of human civilization away through natural processes. Plus human civs usually start out around rivers near the sea, during the last ice ages those areas could have been developed and then as the ice age ended the sea would have covered them “great flood myth” anyone?
Much of the evidence of human civs before 12,000 BC could be laying under the mud and sediment of river deltas that are now hundreds of feet under ocean waters. We won;t begin discovering this until we can create radar tech that can scan below the ocean and through the sediment at high resolutions.
They keep find more and more evidence of very early civilizations that keep pushing back the clock on what the “earliest human civilization” really was.
Wow! Thanks, Civ
You knew you would get me to click for this gorgeous obsidian bracelet. ;•} It’s that antique jewelry obsession.
The article neglects to mention that obsidian is a naturally formed material, a form of volcanic glass. It is jet black in color, polishes to a high level of brilliance, and has been used as a gemstone for millennia.
This bracelet us truly magnificent.

Biometric coded key? They should release a MRI and a full 3d image.
OR.... it means today's polishing techniques suck
.....and then some early Neolithic kid got hold of mom’s bracelet, played around with it and invented the wheel.
This may be of interest to some:
‘I found two independent researchers, a geologist and a machine tool manufacturer, to see what the stone artifacts could tell us, and what the marks left behind by precision machine tools looked like.’
‘Ivan Watkins is a Professor of Geology, Department of Earth Sciences, at St. Cloud University in St. Cloud, Minnesota. He is investigating the finished surface of Inca stonemasonry. He says the surface of stone, at the microscopic level, indicates how it was, or wasn’t, worked. “And you can rule out the standard issue explanations when it comes to ancient Inca stonemasonry, which is very similar to that of Egypt,” he says.’
‘Now let me introduce you to our guest who reads the signature of precision machine tools, even when he sees them in places that just ‘can’t be,’ according to Egyptologists. And read them he did, from core drills more efficient that our diamond bits today, to “space- age precision” planing, to intersecting lathe marks.’

"I've been looking all over for that bracelet."
A Sikh would have used hematite, in exactly the same shape.
Many year’s ago when I was just a kid, I would get my rearend adjusted just for bringing something like this up.
I have always read The Bible with an open mind. The first few books tells us all of this, That giants men of renown walked the Earth, I always read this to mean giants of mind capable of doing unbelievable things. The Son’s of God Looked upon The Daughter’s of men and found them comely and had children by them. Can we even imagine what these people were capable of? It even tells us what happened all trace of them was wiped out destroyed.
No I am not A Bible thumper neither do I go to church it just amazes me that I read about all of this over 50 yrs ago in a book that has been around for thousands of years.
Wow.
That’s a lot of time by the fireside.
Gorgeous!
When you meet a mug lately out of the jug
And he’s still lifting platinum folderol
Call it hell, call it heaven
But it’s probable twelve to seven
That the guy’s only doing it for some doll.
