Description

Nymphs are deities of nature in ancient Greek mythology in the form of girls, personifying various life-giving and fertile forces of the Earth, natural objects and phenomena. Each nymph is the patroness of a certain object or natural phenomenon, its soul and embodiment. In Greek mythology Iynx is an Arkadian Oreiad nymph, a daughter of the god Pan and Echo. She cast a spell on Zeus which caused him to fall in love with Io. In consequence of this, Hera metamorphosed her into the bird called iynx.
