Historical Lore:
Agate is a variety of chalcedony that has been used since antiquity for beads, seals, and ornamental carvings across many ancient cultures, including Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece. The banded varieties found in Botswana are part of more modern geological sources mined in Southern Africa. Botswana agate itself is primarily valued in contemporary lapidary trade for its fine banding and soft, layered patterns, and is widely used today in polished decorative stones and jewellery.
