裘格斯戒指是古希腊哲学家柏拉图在《理想国》中提到的一个具有魔力的神秘物品，该戒指可以使佩戴者获得隐形能力，柏拉图借此故事来讨论如果不用担心做坏事会危及自身名誉，一个有智慧的人是否可以称得上是正义的人这一问题。类似概念在后世如《指环王》（至尊魔戒）中得到运用。
In Glaucon's recounting of the myth, an unnamed ancestor of Gyges[4][5] was a shepherd in the service of the ruler of Lydia. After an earthquake, a cave was revealed in a mountainside where he was feeding his flock. Entering the cave, he discovered that it was in fact a tomb with a bronze horse containing a corpse, larger than that of a man, who wore a golden ring, which he pocketed. He discovered that the ring gave him the power to become invisible by adjusting it. He then arranged to be chosen as one of the messengers who reported to the king as to the status of the flocks. Arriving at the palace, he used his new power of invisibility to seduce the queen, and with her help he murdered the king, and became king of Lydia himself.
