She was said to adorn herself in these gems as a show of her significant wealth and status, and was even said to be buried with the gem for its helpful powers in the afterlife.
Aside from the Egyptians, many other cultures around the world prized emerald stones, as well, including the Incan, Mayan, and Aztec civilizations.
