The frivolous god of fun and winemaking - Dionysus passionately and unrequitedly fell in love with the beautiful nymph Amethis. But a simple shepherd boy was dearer to her. Enraged Dionysus pursued the young nymph for a long time, but she, having prayed to the goddess Artemis, turned into a statue of transparent stone. In desperation, Dionysus tried to revive his beloved by pouring wine over the statue, but she only turned purple and shone in the sun with a purple sheen. So, according to an old legend, the most beautiful stone on earth was born, which guards lovers and protects people from the harmful effects of wine.
