Gold ! Gold ! Gold ! Gold has enthralled man since the dawn of civilization. For centuries he braved arctic cold, tropic heat and inhuman privations to wrest gold from the earth. He used it for religious objects, sculpture, jewelry and as a symbol of wealth. Paradoxically, he often buried it — for use in the afterlife, as the pharaohs, did, or for safekeeping against the uncertainties of this life. Gold’s lustre and rarity, which implied its owner possessed great power, gave it a musical quality from the start. Gold was considered divine in ancient Greece and it was used to adorn temples and as an offering to the gods. Despite their reverence, the ancients were quick to recognize gold’s practical qualities, particularly its malleability, which made it ideal for jewelry. Even Cleopatra used gold ornaments to enhance her charm. However, it has been as a symbol of wealth — of nations as well as individuals — that gold has played its most dramatic role.
