Iron — Amulet Atlas The commonest useful metal and the one that rusts. Because it corrodes so readily, ancient iron objects are far rarer in the ground than gold or silver ones — the survival order of the metals runs opposite to how common… nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/material/iron/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 35K
Anting-anting — Amulet Atlas Most often a flat pendant on a necklace — round, triangular or cross-shaped, in gold-coloured metal, its face crowded with figures and Latin words. But the class is wider than the pendant. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/amulet/anting-anting/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 37K
omamori — Amulet Atlas The Japanese word for a shrine or temple charm, and a rare case of a name that says who is doing the protecting rather than what the thing is made of. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/word/omamori-word/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 28K
Toli — Amulet Atlas A metal disc, brass, copper or bronze, ornamented on one face and polished on the other, worn on a shaman's body. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/amulet/toli-mirror/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 33K
Cloth — Amulet Atlas Woven fibre doing three different jobs: a bag that holds a charm, a garment that is one, and a strip that records how many people worked on it. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/material/cloth/ · 17-Sep-2026 · 37K
Ojo de venado — Amulet Atlas A hard round seed of a Mucuna vine, dark and glossy with a broad black band across it, which is why it reads as an eye at arm's length. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/amulet/ojo-de-venado/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 34K
The timeline — Amulet Atlas Five thousand years of amulet on one stated non-linear axis. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/time/ · 19-Sep-2026 · 131K
Gold — Amulet Atlas A bright yellow metal, dense at 19.3 grams per cubic centimetre, soft, and so malleable that a single gram beats out into a sheet a metre square. It occurs native, usually in solid solution with silver. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/material/gold/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 33K
Folding — Amulet Atlas The step after the writing: the sheet is rolled into a tube, folded into a packet, or creased into a shape, and then cased, sewn or sealed. From that point the text is inside and nobody reads it. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/practice/folding/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 36K
Renewing yearly — Amulet Atlas A charm with an expiry date. The old one is taken down, returned, burnt, buried or tied to a tree, and a new one takes its place on a fixed day. nanobotco.github.io/amulet-atlas/practice/renewing-yearly/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 38K
