[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 419465, member: 2844"]Any time between the 60s and now. Many of these were brought back by people on the 'Hippie Trail', and have been popular ever since. I have never heard of a specific name for these necklaces. They were originally bought as investment, nothing to do with amulets or something like that. They are now mostly made for the tourist trade. They are Pashtun, the main ethnicity of Afghanistan. The Pashto word for necklace is هارون.:playful:[/QUOTE]
