The Greek word for worry beads, "komboloi" (comboloi),
comes from the time when they were used as prayer beads
and combines the word "kombos" (knot), and the verb "leo"
(to say), meaning, "in each knot, I say a prayer".
Prayer beads are said to have evolved in the last 4000
years, and to have been first introduced in India.
Hindus and Buddhists called it "Mala" (using 108 prayer
seeds). Muslims called it "Masbaha" which means "I
recite" (using 99 prayer beans), and later the Orthodox
church used 33 knots on a rope which was called "Komposkini",
then came the Rosaries using 59 beads.
Learn more in the
History of worry beads.
 In
the original prayer beads the beads where
confined close together, leaving only a
small space between them equal to one bead. It
was just enough room for
the fingers to
roll each bead and count
the prayers. But
in modern day worry beads...
...
the Greek spirit could not be confined between two
beads, it needed room to dance and to
make noise, so the modern komboloi
was born.
