Glad to have been of some help.
When I wrote I tried to be succinct. Now I'll try to explain things in a better way.
Nahemah wrote:Ok. [thumbup] That's a lot of information Thehermetist,Thanks.
I used the term 'Kamea' to mean magic square.I should perhaps just have said magic square,lol.
It was [and still is]my assumption that magic squares can be used to derive sigils for names and entities and that this methodology can also be used outside of Kabbalah and GD practices.
I'm still pretty sure I've seen that symbol or one very like it before.I'm still not sure exactly,when/where/why, though.
And for me too,purely curiosity,what was it on the back of,Jack?
The design/style of the pendant itself?
I took the term used by Nahemah (Kamea) as a synonym of Magic Square, to facilitate the understanding of someone who did not know that the two are the same thing, just that. I still remember how the occult may not be friendly at first.
Following the reasoning, Magic Squares ARE USED to draw sigils of several species, exactly the same way that the Key of Sigils and Rituals is used by supporters of the method of the G.: D.:. In the case of Magic Squares, the sigils are drawn from the entity's name transliterated into Hebrew (if the entity name is not inherently Hebraic), then the letters associated with the numbers give rise to the Sigil drawn on the Square. This is the same method used by the Magi before Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim (whom most sigils is copied to this day) and still being used today, and that "gave birth" to the system Key of Sigils and Rituals G.: D.: from the beginning of the last century.
As an example I will show Nachiel Sigil, who is the intelligence of the Sun:
And the Magic Squares of the Sun and Moon, which may be relevant in this case:
In addition to The Key of Sigils and Rituals which is also a possibility:

like there was a line separating the sun and the moon. kinda hard to tell u exactly because it's been awhile since i've seen it now.
The drawing in the pendant is like these drawings?
If this is the drawing in the pendant, it is so recurrent, and an image so banal that I doubt the design is correlated with Magic Squares. But it is still a possibility.
But finally, why I think this Sigil was drawn over The Key of Sigils and Rituals?
Basically because:
1. Its shape is characteristic of Enochian Sigils. The Enochian System was of great influence to the G.: D.:. Before the Golden Dawn, sigils were not standardized in its design, containing in their extremities almost anything. After the Golden Dawn, sigils have gone almost entirely to be drawn as the sigils in the determination of The 92 Governors, in the Tablet of Union.
2. The distance between the small ball and the first corner of Sigil, their angle, position and distance from the third bend.
3. This is no Enochian Sigil, no Sigil of Planetary Intelligence, or Sigil of Planetary Spirit that I know, and which are drawn on Magic Squares.
You know, I'm not quite sure yet. If by chance I come to some other conclusion I'll post here.
