We are following a golden thread through history. This shiny metal has motivated wars, justified conquests, spurred exploration, inspired artistic masterpieces, invoked religious reverence and yielded scientific discoveries. And um... most of all gold gives us the most enduring, iconic forms of jewelry of all time.
In Part Two of our series, "A Casual History of Gold" we look at the concept that throughout time, all across the world, gold has been considered the most precious and sacred of metals. But what does it mean for history, for our ability to look back at once was, when a culture’s most valuable precious metal objects are not cherished and studied, but instead literally liquidated to become another culture’s economical asset? That’s the story of gold in the New World.
