It is said that in ancient Greek mythology, Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, had a lover who was leaving her on a long journey. She was reluctant to let him go and burst into tears. Her tears fell on the ground, and the ground sprouted in the spring of the following year.

Later, violet became very symbolic in Greece, and Athens used it as a mark on its emblem and flag to represent the country's majesty.
