 Glowing Stones in Ancient and Medieval Lore - FARMS JBMS
Ancient sanctuaries often contained sacred stones said to have fallen from heaven (probably meteorites), but it is the stories of glowing stones that are of particular interest.
Hugh Nibley has already drawn our attention to the account of Lucian (in chapter 32 of De Syria Dea) of the shrine of the goddess Astarte, whose crown contained a luminous stone called lychnos ("lamp") that lit up the entire sanctuary at night but which had only a weak glow during the daytime.
He noted the tie to the Greek version of the flood story and wrote of the Indian stories of a glowing stone called "Moonfriend" that borrowed its light from the sun.

It was the sign that a new dimension in Mediterranean politics, an anti-Greek alliance that gave rise to a division of spheres of influence: Italy, barring Magna Graecia, went to the Etruscans, and the great islands of the western Mediterranean went to the Carthaginians.
The clearest evidence of the Etruscan-Carthaginian alliance comes from Pyrgi (Santa Severa) on the Tyrrhenian coast just north of Rome, where a king of Cerveteri had three gold plates inscribed—two in Etruscan and one in Phoenician—dedicating them to the Phoenician goddess Astarte (the Etruscan Uni).
In 510 B.C. the Greeks attempted an invasion in Africa and were repulsed; the Greeks then made an attempt in Sicily where, once again, they were defeated by the Carthaginians.
