SCARABS and Scarab Jewelry

My mom has a scarab bracelet that my dad gave her back in the seventies--

What I'm curious about are the etchings underneath these stones.

I know scarabs held some significance to the ancient Egyptians or Sumerians,

and it wasn't uncommon to find engravings on the underside of the stones--

Most are inscribed with XI IXI... I'm familiar with IXI (or IXXI as Saturn)--

The jade and carnelian etchings (onyx and tigereye also have this)

But I'm not familiar with the others:

The Jasper

And the Lapis

Any ideas on meanings?

Mont, no ideas sorry, but you should take these pics over to ATS - Ancient and Lost Civilizations forum... someone there would probably be able to tell you a little bit about the jewellery...
Here's a link I was reading earlier today, it's not exactly like your story but I think you should join up from there and create your own thread.

I think you have to make 20 posts before you can start your own but you could probably ask around first, and then put up your pics. 🙂

It is, isn't it? 🙂

I've found (so far) that at least one is a

Phoenician symbol... Samekh.

* "In the Greek language, the letter became Xi... "

That's very interesting! I wonder if the others represent letter type symbols.
