Gold is the element whose Latin name is aurum. In fact, it's due to its ancient, classical Latin origins that the chemical element has the symbol 'Au'. And its appeal to humans goes back to ancient Rome, and much further beyon, into prehistoric times. For the metal has a beautiful pure color, and cooperates with workmanship. Therefore, its traditional uses include ornamental and ritualistic purposes. Additionally, it's a dentist's choice for filling holes in teeth.
