The Greek gods didn't have symbols the way you are probably thinking of them. There is always a certain amount of iconography associated with religion, but they didn't have anything like the "Cross" or "Star of David" that applied to specific gods. Instead, the gods had items that were generally associated when them - such as the peacock to Hera, or the Laurel to Apollo.
In the Percy Jackson universe, Nyx's Symbol is a star in a crescent moon.In the real world, the Greek gods didn't have symbols the way we think. In fact, Nyx herself was a symbol, being the embodiment of night..
star = ástron (άστρον)
