Anei ētahi o ngā ahurea me ngā rohe o mua o te rīpene ngutu:
1. Mehopotamia: I whakamahia te ngutu e ngā Sumeria i Mehopotamia mai i te 4000 ki te 3000 BC. I hurihia e rātou ngā kohatu utu nui ki rotopaura,i konatunatua ki te wai, kātahi ka pania ki ngā ngutu.

2. Īhipa Onamata: Ko ngā Īhipa Onamata tētahi o ngā ahurea tuatahi ki te whakamahi i te rīpene ngutu. I whakamahia e rātou te paura kikorangi turquoise hei whakapaipai i ō rātou ngutu, ā, i ētahi wā ka whakaranua e rātou te waikura whero hei hanga rīpene ngutu.
3. Īnia Tawhito: I Īnia tawhito, i rongonui te rīpene ngutu mai i te wā o te Buddhist, ā, i whakamahia e ngā wāhine te rīpene ngutu me ētahi atu mea whakapaipai hei whakapaipai i a rātou anō.

【 Te Whanaketanga Hītori 】
● I Kariki Tawhito, i honoa te whakamahinga o te rīpene ngutu ki te mana pāpori. I whakamahia e ngā wāhine rangatira te rīpene ngutu hei whakaatu i tō rātou mana, engari he iti ake te whakamahinga a ngā wāhine noa.
● I te wā o Rōmana, ka nui haere te rongonui o ngā rīpene ngutu. I whakamahia e ngā wāhine Rōmana ngā kai pēnei i te cinnabar (he tae whero kei roto he mata) hei hanga rīpene ngutu, engari he paitini tēnei kai, ā, i roto i te wā, ka tū hei tūponotanga mō te hauora.
I te Waenganui o ngā Tau, i herea te whakamahinga o te rīpene ngutu ki Ūropi e te whakapono me te ture. I ētahi wā, i kiia te whakamahinga o te rīpene ngutu he tohu makutu.
I te rautau 19, i te wā o te Huringa Ahumahi me te whanaketanga o te umanga matū, ka tīmata te hanga rīpene ngutu ki te ahumahi. I tēnei wā, ka noho haumaru ake ngā kai o te rīpene ngutu, ā, ka āta whakaaetia te whakamahinga o te rīpene ngutu e te hapori.
I te tīmatanga o te rautau 20, ka tīmata te puta mai o ngā rīpene ngutu i roto i te āhua ngongo, ā, ka māmā ake te kawe me te whakamahi. Nā te whanaketanga o ngā ahumahi kiriata me te ahua, kua noho te rīpene ngutu hei wāhanga nui o ngā whakapaipai wahine. I ēnei rā, kua noho te rīpene ngutu hei whakapaipai rongonui puta noa i te ao, me te whānuitanga o ngā tae me ngā momo tae hei whakatutuki i ngā hiahia o ngā kaihoko rerekē.
