Dionysos, Greece
Dionysos (also sometimes spelled Dionyssos or Dionissos;
Greek: Διόνυσος) is a residential suburb in northeastern
Attica,
Greece — just about 23 km northeast of Athens. Dionysos is almost purely residential, but there are a few shops. The area sits in the northwestern part of the
Penteli mountains and its forests that are dominating the south. Another series of mountains and forests lie to the north. Much of the municipality is forested. Dionysos since the mid to late 1980s is connected with the urban sprawl of Athens but it is east of the agglomeration of Athens as well as the Megali Daktylo. The residential area covers the western part of the municipality. Dionysos is passed by a road linking to the mountains and to Nea Makri. Dionysos is accessed with an interchange with
GR-1/
E75 (Athens - Lamia - Thessaloniki) at the 19th km 8 km NE and at the 21st km near Varympompi 8 km SE and GR-83 which is also known as Theseos (
Theseus) Avenue to the west. The Athenian plain lies to the west. Dionysos is located SE of
Thiva, S of
Euboea and
Oropos, SW of
Marathon, NE of
Kifissia and NE of the
Attiki Odos (number 6). Even though the town is located only 20 Kilometres away from central Athens, it has a completely different climate, with weather being significantly cooler, including frequent snowfall during the winter.

Ancient Greek: Διόνυσος or Διώνυσος; associated with
Roman Liber), the
Greek god of
wine, represents not only the
intoxicating power of wine, but also its social and beneficial influences. He was also known as Bacchus and the frenzy he induces, bakcheia. Bacchus is "manifestly non-Greek," Burkert asserts (1985:163). He is viewed as the promoter of
civilization, a
lawgiver, and lover of
skeptic — as well as the patron deity of
agriculture and the
theatre. He was also known as the Liberator (
Eleutherios), freeing one from one's normal self, by madness, ecstasy, or wine. The divine mission of Dionysus was to mingle the music of the
aulos and to bring an end to care and worry. There is also an aspect of Dionysus on his relationship to the "cult of the souls", and the scholar Xavier Riu writes that Dionysus presided over communication between the living and the dead.

Dioniso
Dioniso, chiamato anche
Bacco, e identificato, a
Roma, col vecchio dio italico
Liber Pater, è essenzialmente, in epoca classica, il dio della
vite, del
vino, e del delirio mistico. La sua leggenda è complessa, poiché essa unisce diversi elementi, presi in prestito non solamente dalla
Grecia, ma dai paesi vicini. Dioniso, per esempio, ha assorbito in sé culti analoghi originari dell'
Asia Minore, e queste identificazioni parziali hanno dato origine a episodi ricollegati bene o male al resto della sua storia.
