Bušilica na luk korištena je za bušenje karneola,u Meghari u Indiji,već na prijelazu četvrtog u peti milenij prije Krista.[1] Karneol je nađen i u brončanodobnnoj Minojskoj civilizaciji,u Knososu,Na Kreti.;[2] (oko 1800. prije Krista). Rimljani su ga uvelike koristili za izradu kameja,za pečatnjake. Vrući se vosak nije ljepio za karneol.[3] Koristili su ga i asirci, egipćani, feničani, etruščani i stari grci. .[4]
