Hamsa necklace with coloured stones

The hamsa, a hand-shaped amulet, is found across the Middle East and North Africa. Its name, khamsa, means ‘five’. Muslims know it as the Hand of Fatima, after the Prophet’s daughter, while Jews call it the Hand of Miriam and some Christians the Hand of Mary. In all three communities people traditionally wore or hung it to ward off the evil eye. Its exact origins are unclear, but the belief in protective hands is very old.
