Rhinestone
In ancient Greek myths, heroes, kings and gods drank only from crystal goblets. And this is no coincidence. At that time, it was believed that crystal was able to expel diseases from water or, in modern terms, to disinfect water.
It is also believed that rhinestone laid under the pillow saves a person from nightmares, relieves insomnia and causeless fears.
Tibetan healers applied crystal balls to their wounds. They were sure that as soon as the sun's rays hit the affected area through the stone, the wounds would heal. Today, scientists have explained this ability of rock crystal. It turns out that with the passage of ultraviolet rays through the crystal, all bacteria die, which contributes to a speedy recovery.
