ABOUT \u201cGNOME\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I know \u201cGnome\u201d by chance through a perfume bottle named \u201cConfession of a Garden Gnome.\u201d The word \u201cGnome\u201d was introduced to refer to a creature with a small stature, often wearing a high, pointed, red hat. Small \u201cGnome\u201d statues began appearing in Europe in the early 1600s as a sign of good luck. The \u201cGarden Gnome\u201d as we know them today appeared in Germany in the mid to late 1800s and were always made of clay. They were popular in German fairy tales and were often described as old men who guarded treasure. In the 1840s, \u201cGnome\u201d first appeared in the gardens of England, and from there, their popularity began to take off. The mythical \u201cGnome\u201d were thought to live underground as their name derives from a Latin word for earth dweller.<\/p>\n

“Gnome” were thought to provide protection, especially for buried treasure and minerals in the ground. They are still used today to watch over crops and livestock, often tucked into the corners of a barn or hidden in the garden. In fairy tales, although they are kind and considerate to humans, the “Gnome” keep their possessions very mysterious; they never allow humans to know the deep cave where they reside and only appear when they want to.<\/p>\n

While researching, I also know “Gnome” in a completely different sense. This “Gnome” refers to people who are intellectually active, quiet, and often unknown to the public. This new concept coincides with who I am and what I aim for, so I used it to name this blog.<\/p>\n
