The history
The idea that the individual months of the year have a correlation to a specific gemstone and therefore a representative 'birthstone' is believed to date back to the first century. A historian named Josephus realised there was an association with the months of the year and the twelve gemstones in Aaron's breastplate - Aaron was Moses' older brother and wore the breastplate to communicate with God and to determine his will.
