Lapis lazuli  is a semi-precious stone prized since antiquity for its intense blue colour. Lapis has been mined in the Badakhshan province of Afghanistan for 6,500 years.
In ancient Egypt  Lapis Lazuli possessed purportedly life-giving powers.

The Book of the Dead describes Horus, the hawk-like son of the God Osiris destroying all evil. After his deed he appears in the heavenly firmament in the form of a hawk and "his torso is made of blue stone".
