Why Amazon: We wanted a name that
combined successfully the following concepts: Sports, energy, power,
honor, courage, braveness and at the same time combined and merged
all these successfully with our own Greek heritage. |

The word "Amazon":
The word Amazon
is of unknown origin, however a folk etymology popped up which
explained the word as being a derivative of the preface "a-",
meaning "without", followed by "mazos", meaning "breast". This folk
etymology was supported by the folktale that Amazons cut off one
breast to facilitate archery. |

Who were the Amazons:
Historically,
Amazons were portrayed as beautiful women in Amazonomachies, which
was an art form showing battles between the Amazons and Greeks.
Amazons were trained to use all weapons and especially in single
combat. They were honorable, courageous, brave and represented
rebellion against sexism. Their tales spread quickly and soon
stories of the Amazons were everywhere, including Africa, Asia,
Europe, South America (the Amazon River was named after the female
warriors), and North America in the mid-1900s with the comic book
hero, Wonder Woman.
