Many cultures believe that receiving the evil eye will cause misfortune or injury, while others believe it to be a kind of supernatural force that casts or reflects a malevolent gaze back-upon those who wish harm upon others (especially innocents).
Talismans or amulets created to protect against the evil eye are also frequently called "evil eyes". Older iterations of the symbol were often made by ceramic or clay, however, proceeding the production of glass beads in the Mediterranean in approximately 1500 B.C., evil eye beads popularised with the Phonecians, Greeks, Romans, and Ottomans.
