When is a Sapphire not a Sapphire? When it's cursed | The Delhi Purple Sapphire
from Ominous Origins · host Casey Chaplin
Today we're looking at Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in your shoe... Wait, that's not right. We're looking at something stolen, something purple, and something cursed. Way back in the mid to late 1800's, during the Indian uprising against the British colonization, a colonel stole a magnificent purple rock from a temple. His life almost immediately fell apart. Years later a scholar came into possession of this same rock. His life, too, fell apart. The rock in question is the Delhi Purple Sapphire, and it's cursed. Good thing it sits safely behind some glass at the British History Museum.
