Mortar & Pestles are very precious tools for crushing and grounding either food, herbs, or seeds, or incense and other varieties of herbal and mystical spells & medicine. One of the great symbols of pharmacology, Mortar & Pestles have been used in preparations for thousands of years. They are one of most commonly used magical mundane tools.
They were described in the Ebers papyrus from Ancient Egypt that dates back to 1550BC. One of oldest preserved piece of medical literature discovered. It is estimated that mortar and pestles were used for over 6,000 years before this for food preparation. Mostly for the grinding of spices. Also mentioned in the Old Testament, they are unique in that their design has largely remained unchanged over the last 10,000 years. They were also commonly used in Egypt for the grinding of cosmetics. Mortars and pestles were and are an essential tool of civilizations everywhere.
Carved from Marble which is said to encourage wisdom in decisions and common sense. It brings one flexibility through difficult circumstances and helps with positive focus. Bringing about physical and emotional improvements. It is said to assist with mastery of thought and meditation encouraging serenity.
