A 3,000 year old bronze ring, in the shape of a heart, has been
unearthed in Karabakh, Asbarez reports, quoting Russian blogger
Mazzoni Guide, who visited Artsakh this summer.
Describing the heart-shaped ornament - which appears to have been
worn as a necklace - the blogger says, "This is a three thousand year
old piece of jewelry. Today, the heart shape is ubiquitous, used as
a symbol of love: on clothing, in pictures, and text messaging. But
people have been using this symbol for ages. Looking at this ring,
one must imagine that this is the first heart-shaped ornament on the
planet; and it's probable that even then, this ornament symbolized
love."
