JEWEL OF THE DAY - from Trenta Sicilian Crest Necklace

JEWEL OF THE DAY - from Trenta Sicilian Crest - a regal Seal of Sicily crest coin on a 32" sterling chain, can be worn short or long and even as a decorative belt, $695.00. The symbol dates back to when Sicily was part of Magna Graecia, the colonial extension of Greece beyond the Aegean. Pliny the Elder attributes the ...origin of the triskelion of Sicily to the triangular form of the island, the ancient Trinacria, which consists of three large capes equidistant from each other, pointing in their respective directions, the names of which were Pelorus, Pachynus, and Lilybæum.The translation for the Greek text: "ZEUS FATHER TO THE LAWS" Special Thanks to Kathleen McGowan for help with the translation.
