Diamonds have been thought to symbolise power and strength and it was claimed that diamonds give victory to he or she who carries it bound on his left arm, no matter the number of enemies. Diamonds have been believed to be the tears of God, splinters of fallen stars and it has also been thought that they would change colour in the face of guilt or in the presence of poison.
