Synopsis
Excerpt from Deutsches Fremdwörterbuch
Achat, bei Plinius: Lapis Achates, angeblich nach einem sizilianischen, Achat führenden Flüßchen dieses Namens. Im Mittelalter verwechselte man den Achat mit der Ambra, dem Bernstein und dem Magnetstein und nannte daher alle diese Mineralien Agtstein (mit der Media, wie ital. Agata, franz. Agate und wie der ebenfalls mit dem Achat zusammengeworfene Gagat, engl. Jet).
