Many mythological stories surround the enigmatic and beautiful Onyx. One of the myths of the origin of Onyx, says that the goddess Venus was resting on the banks of the Indus River. As she slept, Cupid used the point of one of his enchanted arrows to give her a manicure. The parings of her nails then fell into the waters of the sacred river. Since the nails were of heavenly origin, they sank to the bottom of the river and were turned into Onyx. The word Onyx is derivatived from the Greek word “onux,” meaning fingernail.
