Agate is not a single mineral, but rather a group of microcrystalline varieties of quartz (silica). In reality, they are varieties of chalcedony that exhibit bands of several subtly contrasting colors. The color variations arise because the structure and number of inclusions in the chalcedony differ in each area, thus altering its properties.

The name "agate" comes from the Achates River, now the Dirillo River, in southern Sicily, Italy, where the first of these stones is said to have been found.

Agate was highly revered by the ancients and considered the stone of science. Indian agate was believed to be the best remedy for eye diseases, and Egyptian agate was thought to be very effective against spider bites and scorpion stings.
