The color purple is historically associated with royalty & power because of several species of predatory sea snails in the family Muricidae. Their mucus made kings look regal. The Phoenicians built a vast trading empire around trade in snail mucus more precious than silver. Let's talk about it.

"Fabrics dyed in the current era from different species of sea snail. The colors in this photograph may not represent them precisely."

It's a museum display on Wikimedia, showing some snail shells and cloth dyed from their mucus.
