Snakes and women are always inseparable?

Women wearing snake-shaped jewelry suddenly increased their charm. In fact, since ancient times, women and snakes have an unspeakable origin. In different fairy tales and cultures, snakes are always endowed with different female images, either kindness or kindness, but their appearance must be beautiful.

So how did snakes get into the jewelry circle and become popular today? The earliest snake ornaments appeared in ancient Egypt. At that time, people thought that snakes represented loyalty and divinity. On the crowns and headdresses of Egyptian pharaohs and queens, we can find snake totems made of gold and precious stones. Cleopatra VII Philpatel was a famous Cleopatra. She feared snakes, and many of her jewels were decorated with snake patterns. Also, she let a snake commit suicide to end her life and Egypt's life at the same time, which shows how much she respects and worships snakes.
