History:
Judging by the number of hands painted in prehistoric caves it would seem the human hand held a interest for humans since the stone age. Archaeological discoveries have discovered hands made of stone, wood and ivory by ancient civilizations. The emperor of china used his thumbprint when sealing documents in 3000 bc. and the Greek physicians Hypocrites and Galen (ad 130-200) were both knowledgeable about the use of palmistry as a clinical aid. Julius Caesar (102-44bc) judged his men by palmistry... In 1901 Scotland yard adopted the technique of fingerprinting in criminal investigation and identification.

According to palmistry:
•When someone’s fingers can’t be bent backwards it can suggest a honest but stubborn character.
•When someone has square fingers it suggest an honest character but the person is not normally very original.
•And finally tampering fingers will indicate a person who can be a dreamer but who very often has artistic talent.
•Soft and flabby hands is a good sign of someone who prefers the easy life.
