Because turtles and tortoises have long age spans, they are often involved in superstitions regarding longevity – for example, keeping a tortoise medallion charm in the home is believed to ensure that the longevity of the family patriarch and some tortoise medallions are believed to have healing powers, giving long life to you, just like the tortoise. The Thais believe that if you free a tortoise you will find relief from sadness and upset, while the Vietnamese believe that if you see a tortoise crossing the street, your plans will be delayed. The Chinese believe patting the shell of a tortoise or wearing a medallion of a tortoise will bring you luck and in parts of Angola, it is believed that putting a tortoise shell underneath your door will help you warn off a rival.
