Gold is a chemical element and a precious metal that is yellow in color. Its symbol is Au, from the Latin aurum, which in Latin means “bright dawn”. It is used as a symbol of purity, value, royalty, honor, etc. It has been an axis of the history of humanity, both in its real form and in its most abstract form, for what it is and represents.
