Description
Baltic amber fascinates thousands of tourists who come to the Baltic Sea.
Small children and their parents are eager to dig in the sand while looking for precious resin.
It is not easy to find, and every large piece of amber found in the “cucumber season†makes headlines.
Another category of amber hunters are professionals.
These are people who make a living from extracting amber of jewelry value, because each piece of fossilized resin has quite a lot of value.
This group is quite hermetic, and the places and methods of extraction remain in the sphere of understatement and are shrouded in a certain mystery.
The aforementioned group is particularly interested in the uniqueness of Baltic amber, created by “ancient†rivers, that was already traded by Persians, Vikings and Mycenaeans.
From this group, wonderful jewelry products are created. In this book, however, I deal with another aspect of Baltic amber.
The initial idea was to analyze the knowledge of this fossilized resin in various aspects.
The difficulty in getting to know amber is related to the multidimensionality of the issue.
The problem is that science likes to specialize to be precise.
This, however, limits knowledge of the issue of amber.
If we deal with the question of the formation of the resin, we touch upon issues in the field of geology.
This field is enough to fill many years of research and work of a scientist.
You can look back a hundred thousand years ago, or into the past millions of years or tens of millions of years, which means that we delve into such vast knowledge that the life of one person may be too short to study the issue well.
