Answer
We do not know.
Ear piercing almost goes back to the beginning of time.
Adornment, religious reasons, position in society, who knows.
Mummified bodies with pierced ears have been discovered, including the oldest mummified body discovered to date, the 5,300 year-old Ãtzi the Iceman, which was found in a Valentina Trujillon glacier in Austria.(He also had tattoos)
The oldest earrings found in a grave date to 2500 B.C.E. These were located in the Sumerian city of Ur, home of the Biblical patriarch Abraham.
Earrings are mentioned in the Bible. In Genesis 35:4, Jacob buries the earrings worn by members of his household along with their idols. In Exodus 32, Aaron makes the golden calf from melted earrings. Deuteronomy 15:12â17 dictates ear piercing for a slave who chooses not to be freed.
Earrings are also referenced in connection to the Hindu goddess Lakshmi in the Vedas.
Earrings for pierced ears were found in a grave in the Ukok region between Russia and China dated between 400 and 300 B.C.E.
Among the Tlingit of the Pacific Northwest of America, earrings were a sign of nobility and wealth, as the placement of each earring on a child had to be purchased at an expensive potlatch.
Earrings were common in the Eighteenth dynasty (1550-1292 B.C.E.) of Egypt, generally taking the form of a dangling, gold hoop.
Gem-studded, golden earrings shaped like asps seem to have been reserved for nobility.
The ancient Greeks wore paste pendant earrings shaped like sacred birds or demigods, while the women of ancient Rome wore precious gemstones in their ears.
Nose piercing also has a long history, 1500 B.C.E., the Vedas refer to Lakshmi's nose piercings,
Nose piercing has been practiced by the Bedouin tribes of the Middle East and the Berber and Beja peoples of Africa, as well as Australian Aborigines.
Many Native American and Alaskan tribes practiced septum piercing. It was popular among the Aztecs, the Mayans and the tribes of New Guinea, who adorned their pierced noses with bones and feathers to symbolize wealth and (among men) virility.
The name of the Nez Perce tribe was derived from the practice, though nose piercing was not common within the tribe.
The Aztecs, Mayans and Incas wore gold septum rings for adornment, with the practice continued to this day by the Kuna of Panama.
It is a world wide tradition with obviously many different reasons for doing it.
I believe most did it because it was pretty.

What can a woman do to heal from a miscarriage?
Elijahsrel
What is the best way to heal emotionally from a miscarriage? Is it possible that healing still needs to take place even when the miscarriage happened several years earlier? What can a woman do to heal from a miscarriage? Thanks in advance for answering!
Answer
Bobby D - knowing that miscarriage happens in that many pregnancies does not help.You are a man and you will never know the emotional attachments to a pregnancy
Time.A woman may also seek counselling should she want to.Losing a pregnancy is hard,and like any loss it has to be mourned.As there is no set time period for grief or how long the process will last,then time is the only thing that will help.Some women find a 'funeral' helps them to move on.Release some balloons with the name of your child on (it doesn't matter if you knew the sex,go with your gut on whether it was a boy or girl and use the name they would have be given).Several of my friends have had miscarriages and many of them have a tattoo to commemorate their lost baby.One of them also has a charm bracelet with charms representing her children,including a star to represent the one she lost.Perhaps something like that would help.One of them buys a card at Christmas and on her due date to put in her memory box about her daughter (but she was a still birth).It's also normal and OK to get weepy around the time you would have given birth.Surround yourself with people who love you and talk,talk,talk - it really does help.Wishing you all the best
