If this stone was named -- which has only recently become popular for large and very precious diamonds -- more than 6,000 years ago, its name and the person who named it has been lost to history.Otherwise, all diamonds are as old as earth itself.
1100 years ago means in the year 911 AD. In the year 1000 AD the largest city in the world was Angkor so this may be the answer.
It enabled countries to afford large armies. Apex
In 1965.Doctor Julius Robert Oppenheimer, professor of physics at U.C. Berkeley and scientific director of the 'Manhattan Project', said in a television interview in 1965 (about 20 years after the first atomic bomb test explosion on July 16, 1945, called "Trinity") that the explosion reminded him of a verse in the Hindu scripture Bhagavad-Gita, which he quoted as:"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
European wealth came from a variety of sources, one of which was the Bolivian capital of Potosi. Disgusting amounts of silver were exported from this town during the Spanish conquests of the New World, resulting in Spain's rapid ascent to the top of European powers. The Spanish were not too keen on saving their fortune, however, so the silver was quickly spent and traveled eastward throughout Europe until it landed in the hands of the Chinese 300 years later (in the mid-19th century). Another source of European wealth was the vast amount of diamonds and gold in South Africa (first discovered and mined by Dutch colonists, and then later the British). The amount of diamonds found in South Africa was so great, it is estimated that about 80% of the world's diamonds came from there.
Diamonds were not invented; beautiful diamonds are natural gems. But from many years artificial diamonds are produced for industrial goals.
Diamonds have been part of human history for more than 6,000 years.

Diamonds are formed deep within the Earth's mantle over billions of years, so the youngest diamonds available for mining are typically at least hundreds of millions of years old. However, there are some rare cases where diamonds have formed more recently, but these are still likely to be tens of millions of years old at minimum.
Diamonds are very valuable because they are rare and precious metals. Diamonds were first mined over 2800 years ago in India.
Diamonds are formed deep within the Earth's mantle and they can be billions of years old. The youngest diamonds are usually around 1 billion years old, while some can even be as old as 3.3 billion years.
Diamonds are reported to have been found in the country of India for approximately 3,000 to 6,000 years. The diamonds are mostly discovered in large mines.
1 million+ Years to be a diamonds... :/
Diamonds are typically set in metal, so as to protect the stone from loss.
With advancements in technology, scientists can now produce diamonds in laboratories that possess the same chemical and physical properties as natural diamonds
For 4 years. In 2008 the team adopted the nickname "Diamonds."
