Summary
[edit]Description02023 Amber finger-ring found in an early medieval stronghold in Kamień Pomorski.jpg |
English: MNS/A/19614/21 In the early Middle Ages, Western Pomerania used the Baltic amber, also referred to as succinite, which is light and, unlike other varieties, contains a lot of amber acid valued for its medicinal properties. It is also characterised by a wide range of colours – with the most popular orange, through yellow and red, to greenish and bluish hues. The easiest way to acquire amber was to collect smaller and bigger lumps, which washed up on the beaches during storms. Traditional methods also included scooping – disturbing the seabed with long sticks, which released the amber from under the sand. Light lumps of amber then floated to the surface, where they could be picked up with baskets. |
