الوصف

Amulet protecting the parturient and newborn against Lilith, accused of threatening infants. The text invokes the angels Sanvi, Sansanvi and Semangelof and bears the names of Adam and Eve; some examples depict Lilith chained. Hung above the cradle or on the wall of the lying-in chamber, it remained in place until the end of the period deemed dangerous.
