Description |
The image of Artemis, goddess of the hunt,
adorns one side of this ancient coin. On the other
is a winged thunderbolt. The daughter of Zeus
(king of the gods), and twin sister to Apollo (god
of the arts), Artemis was famous for the
sureness of her aim with bow and arrow. She
lived free, roaming the hills and forests with her
nymphs. This ring is the ideal jewel for someone
who is equally free-spirited and whose aim is
always on target.
