Where does the custom of breaking a chicken bone to make a wish come from?
We all have in mind this image from our childhood where we break a bone of wishes, wishing from deep in our heart to obtain the biggest piece so that our dream comes true. But what exactly do we know about this tradition?
In reality, the act of breaking this bone, the furcula of its scientific name, comes to us from an ancient European people present around the year 700 BCE in the north of present-day Italy: the Etruscans.
The diviners of this culture used to use this strange bone in some of their magical rituals. Close to animal sacrifice in many ways, this technique is associated by many with a form of witchcraft.
Legend has it that the Romans then took over this tradition. However, chickens were becoming rare given the tremendous increase in their population, so citizens had to share the bones. The custom associated with the lucky charm that we know today was born.
Through military conquests, the Romans spread this use to many corners of Europe. Originally a Roman lucky charm, the wish bone is today common to a whole bunch of people on the continent.
When it comes to choosing a lucky necklace, most people look for an ancient symbol that has proven itself throughout history. For you and for them, we have good news : this is precisely the case with this necklace!
