The Libyan desert glass (98% quartz) glowing in yellow to green is the best-known rock in the impact glass category. According to currently prevailing opinion, it was formed during a meteorite impact in the hard-to-reach dune landscape in the Egyptian-Libyan border area, the Libyan Desert about 28 million years ago.
Already in the Stone Age, the rock was collected and processed by humans to be used as a sharp blade. The discovery of a hand axe can be seen today in the Paris Museum.
Less useful than the more precious considered it the ancient Egyptians. Libyan desert glass was considered very valuable and was used for cult objects, such as scarab, the symbol of the sun god, on the Tutankhamun amulet of the famous Pharos. deals
