In the Victorian era, lockets became very popular, and after the invention of photography in the mid-1800s, photos of loved ones were frequently placed inside. Prior to this period, lockets often held hairs of loved ones, ashes from deceased relatives and even powders and poisons (I do not endorse this)!

Gold artefacts made their first appearance at the very beginning of the pre-dynastic period in Egypt, at the end of the fifth millennium BC and the start of the fourth; smelting was developed during the course of the 4th millennium, according to C.H.V. Sutherland’s book, Gold. As of 1990, gold artefacts found at the Nahal Qana cave cemetery of the 4th millennium BC were the earliest from the Levant.
