<p>[QUOTE=&quot;StephenR, post: 1589063, member: 42689&quot;]<b>further reading</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I just did a Google search on “scorpion phallus snake crab” and came up with this book written in 1895 and republished by Dover in 2003, “The Evil Eye: The Classic Account of an Ancient Superstition” By Frederick Thomas Elworthy, which is on Google books (and available on Amazon).&nbsp; That clearly shows Roman coins (or discs) with similar symbols, in various combinations, all of which were meant to protect against the &quot;evil eye&quot; (and an eye is also clearly visible on the earring disc discovery).&nbsp; I assume the earring disc fulfilled the same function. The book gives more detail.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
