Native Americans of the Southwest were introduced to coral by the Spanish, who also brought items such as horses, sheep, wheat, and metalwork. For centuries, Native people had been fashioning beads from shells like spiny oyster, and the deep red Mediterranean coral quickly became a prized material, traded between the Spanish and various pueblos and the Navajo (Diné) people of the Southwest. Native Americans also consider the gem as a sign of wealth and status because of its expense and rarity. Since coral was very pricey then (and still is), it is worn by wealthy individuals, medicine men, and elders. And of course, the darker the red, the better!
In Native American beliefs, coral is seen as a water spirit, or that it holds that essence, since it comes from the ocean. With that being said, wearing it during ceremonies or in everyday use widens the chance of your prayers being heard. It is also used in traditional ceremonies to help evoke the spirits and Creator to be of help, and even more so to bring rain.
