At what point did noserings become more uncommon and/or not as accepted?
Seems like it was the norm in the ancient civilizations, around 2,500 years or so ago.

Ruchel and Octopus, that makes sense.
How could they have have pierced noses in a hygienic fashion in those days? A hanging nose jewel makes more sense.

They pierced ears, why not noses? Hygiene wasn't a thing.

"If your slave refuses to leave, and says "master, take me into your household" then take an awl and bore a hole through his ear, into your doorpost."
 Doesn't sound too hygienic to me, but apparently it was a done thing back then. Compared to that, a tiny needle through the nose would be a pinprick!
