The Greek word "amethystos" may be translated as "not drunken", from Greek a-, "not" + methustos, "intoxicated". Amethyst was considered to be a strong antidote against drunkenness, which is why wine goblets were often carved from it.

"L'Amethyste, ou les Amours de Bacchus et d'Amethyste" (Amethyst or the loves of Bacchus and Amethyste), the French poet Remy Belleau (1528–1577) invented a myth in which Bacchus, the god of intoxication, of wine, and grapes was pursuing a maiden named Amethyste, who refused his affections. Amethyste prayed to the gods to remain chaste, a prayer which the chaste goddess Diana answered, transforming her into a white stone. Humbled by Amethyste's desire to remain chaste, Bacchus poured wine over the stone as an offering, dyeing the crystals purple.

Variations of the story include that Dionysus had been insulted by a mortal and swore to slay the next mortal who crossed his path, creating fierce tigers to carry out his wrath. The mortal turned out to be a beautiful young woman, Amethystos, who was on her way to pay tribute to Artemis. Her life was spared by Artemis, who transformed the maiden into a statue of pure crystalline quartz to protect her from the brutal claws. Dionysus wept tears of wine in remorse for his action at the sight of the beautiful statue. The god's tears then stained the quartz purple.

This myth and its variations are not found in classical sources. However, the goddess Rhea does present Dionysus with an amethyst stone to preserve the wine-drinker's sanity in historical text.

Perfect Toy
My dog loves this ! It is very sturdy, very strong, but flexible. It feels soft, but seems chew proof, even for my 100 pound Cane Corso. The stick shape is more practical than a ball; it doesn't roll off or get lost under furniture.

Good toy, strong yet soft!
This was one of my best toy purchases for our GSD! He’s a rough playing dog with a hard mouth! Toy destroyer! This he loves to fetch, tug, carry, and chew on. I never really expected it to last when I got it. Surprise! Almost two months of rigorous daily play and it’s still almost like new!

Great cost effective chew toy for an aggressive chewer
Bought multiple. Still have a few in the package because the others are still going strong. Nice heft to throw them a good distance, durable enough for a heeler that is a very aggressive chewer to not destroy them after a month, and easy to see when they leave them in the grass. Good size, Good weight, Excellent durability, and keeps their attention longer than a actual stick.

Fun toy for dogs
Great toy for my dog. She loves when we throw it in the backyard for her and so far she hasn’t chewed it apart and she’s a big chewer. It’s bouncy too which makes it even more fun to chase. Great toy for the price

Great toy
Nice as a chew toy, fetch toy or for tug. My dogs liked it immediately. I love that it is not immediately destroyed, like most fabric toys.
