Amulets
Near East Shell
In the Near East they might use a shell as an amulet which bears an inscription in Arabic. Usually made from the mother of pearl part of the shell which shows the purity of its color and adds to its magical power to drive away evil.
The inscription is a magical script. The script might ask for good fortune, or in a fisherman's case might ask for a good catch.
