Pearl

Pearl is a gemstone.
==History==
s were one of the attractions that drew Julius Caesar to Britain. They are freshwater pearls from mussels, though not all mussels and oysters produce them. For thousands of years, most seawater pearls were retrieved by divers working in the Indian Ocean in areas such as the Persian Gulf, the Red Sea, and the Gulf of Mannar between Sri Lanka and India. Pliny the Elder praised the pearl fishery of the Gulf as the most productive in the world.
The word pearl comes from the the Latin perna, meaning "leg."
