Amethyst is the purple or violet member of the crystalline quartz family, deriving its name from the Koine Greek 'amethystos,' meaning 'not intoxicated.' Both Ancient Greeks and Romans cherished amethyst for its believed ability to protect against excessive intoxication, often crafting drinking goblets from the stone. Traditionally, the Ural Mountains of Siberia yielded the finest quality amethyst, but today, the majority of deposits are found in Brazil and Uruguay.
