The name Amethyst comes from the Greek word "amethystos" which means "not intoxicated". The Greeks regularly drank from Amethyst cups to slow down the effects of alcohol. According to a Greek legend, the god of wine Dionysus fell madly in love with a beautiful young girl named Amethystos. He coveted her, but she wished to preserve her purity. She therefore implored the goddess Artemis who, to protect her, transformed her into a beautiful colorless crystal. Dionysus, furious, then threw his wine cup at the crystal, thus giving it its purple color.
