Jewelry is a fantastic piece of body ware that adorns a person wrists or neck. In ancient times, it was often a symbol of the class he belongs to, his ancestry, and essentially tells his life story in one quick glimpse. It can tell if the man wearing a particular piece of jewelry is a prince or a warrior king. The tribal jewelry can tell if a maiden is betrothed or not. It can even tell if a man has been enslaved. That is the power of the tribal jewelry in ancient times. Made of materials indigenous to the area where the tribal jewelry is being worn, it consists of decorative materials like beads, jewelry stones, wood, and other materials that can be found in a particular area.
A tribal jewelry may be simple and yet elegant or it may be an exquisite piece of art crafted by an artist. The jewelry may define the wearer and make him shine out in a crowd. That was the reason why people born with the royal blood had such exquisite tribal ornaments to emphasize their official station. Production of a particular piece then was not made in a simple tribal jewelry store nor was it being sold in a tribal jewelry store found in the area. They were specially made for a specific purpose and delivered specifically to the intended wearer.
The word jewelry came from the Latin word "jocale" which means "plaything". Aside from being worn with symbolism as a purpose, jewelry is and has been regarding as a means of storing wealth. Tribal adornments in terms of jewelry at present usually means being given composed of local materials that are beautiful but not highly priced.
