The Secret Seal of Solomon is a Seal of Protection attributed to King Solomon. The second son of David and Bathsheba, Solomon was the Third King of Isreal who ruled around the 10th century BC. The seal is considered to be, by tradition, the symbol by means of which the "72 Djinn were imprisoned in the Brazen Vessel by the Mogus-King and sunk beneath the ocean." The magical influence of this talisman has been described as "protection from all negative influences and evil spirits."
