Part of the Worlds Away collection, the Hamsa Hand is an ancient Middle Eastern talisman that can be traced back to the civilization of Phoenicia, where it represented Tanit, patron goddess of their capital city Carthage, and to Mesopotamia where it represented the goddess Ishtar or Inanna. It is a protective sign in many faiths, bringing its owner happiness, luck, health, and good fortune. The hamsa hand has a wide variety of different spellings including hamesh, hamsa, chamsa, and khamsa, and is sometimes called the Hand of God, the Hand of Miriam, the Hand of Mary, or the Hand of Fatima.
