This name derives from the Ancient Greek “a- (ᾰ̓-) brotós (βροτός) ámbrotos (ἄμβροτος) ambrósios (ᾰ̓μβρόσῐος),” meaning “immortal, divine, which belongs to the immortal, ambrosia, the nectar of the gods.” In Ancient Greek mythology, Ambrosia is sometimes the Greek demigod’s food or drink, often depicted as conferring ageless immortality upon whoever consumed it. It was accompanied to the gods on Olympus by doves to be considered in the Homeric tradition as a kind of divine exhalation of the Earth. Ambrosia is sometimes depicted in ancient art as distributed by a nymph labeled with that name. In Lycurgus’s myth, an opponent to the wine god Dionysus, violence committed against Ambrosia turns her into a grapevine.
