History, beliefs and legends about the Mexican crazy lace agate

While Mexican Crazy Lace Agate was documented as early as 1895, it wasn’t until the 1950s that it was rediscovered by American geologists during highway construction.

Pre-Hispanic local populations used this stone as an offering to appease the gods. The intricate "crazy" network of lines, sometimes tinged with red, may have symbolized blood and the circulatory system, crucial elements in cultures where sacrifice (or self-sacrifice) was practiced to appease or seek favor from different gods.

Mexican Crazy Lace Agate is considered a tonic agate, associated with vitality and energy.
