Jade was first found in ancient Mesoamerica, particularly in regions that are now part of Mexico and Guatemala. The Olmec civilization, around 1500 BCE, is known to have used jade for tools, ornaments, and ritual objects. Additionally, nephrite jade was also discovered in China, where it became highly valued for its beauty and cultural significance.
