Amber
Amber is actually a tree resin, and often contains insects or plant particles. Amber was often used as money and jewlery.
Amber was one of the first commercial products, and has been traded for centuries.
It has been found in the form of pendants dating from the Paleolithic Era (c. 12,000 B.C.).
Evidence of amber jeweller's workshops has been discovered by archeologists tied to the Neolithic period.
During the 1st-4th Centuries BC, the Celts and Romans were great amber sellers. Amber was used
in a number of different objects, including coinage.
