The origin of the cornicello can be traced back to ancient Italian folklore and superstitions. It is thought to have roots in the pre-Christian era when horns were associated with various protective and fertility symbols. Over time, the cornicello became specifically linked to protection against the “malocchio” or evil eye, a belief that certain individuals could cast a malevolent gaze that could bring misfortune.
