High quality Silver pentagram symbol Keyring - Size: 42mm
5 pointed star (Also known as pentalpha or pentangle)
The word pentagram comes from the Greek word pentagrammon, meaning 5 lines.
The Greek philosopher Pythagoras believed that each of the five points of the Pentagram represent one of the five elements that make up mankind: fire, water, air, earth and psyche.
In geometry, it is also connected to the Golden Ratio.
As far back as 3000BC (Mesopotamia), many cultures have used the Pentagram to symbolise a wide variety of meanings, linking heaven, earth and humanity.
Like the swastika (which in its original form meant good luck), the Pentagram also has acquired conflicting views.
The Pentagram appears on the Ethiopian and Moroccan flag and is symbolised in Da Vinci’s art
