Historically, rings date all the wayback 3,000 years to ancient Egypt. They used rings to represent eternity and the cycle of life, since the ring in the shape of a circle has no beginning and no end. Rings are the most organic of shapes. The Egyptians worshiped and had Gods for both the Sun and the Moon, which are the same circular shape of a ring. Thus, the ring a perfect amalgam of many their beliefs. Upon death, one was entombed with their ring, which would accompany the person into afterlife.
From Egypt to Greece to Rome and beyond, this trend of giving rings to show love and devotion in has traveled across the globe and has been carried on and adopted by many cultures. So what we now know today as an eternity wedding band has much more meaning than just that stones go around the whole ring.
