maenad

n. woman who participated in the orgiastic rites of Dionysus (Greek Mythology); bacchante, female follower of Dionysus or Bacchus in Greek Mythology; crazed infuriated or excited woman

In Greek mythology, Maenads were female worshippers of Dionysus, the Greek god of mystery, wine, and intoxication, and the Roman god Bacchus. Their name literally translates as "raving ones". They were known as wild, insane women who could not be reasoned with. The mysteries of Dionysus inspired the women to ecstatic frenzy; they indulged in copious amounts of violence, bloodletting, sexual activity, self-intoxication, and mutilation. They were usually pictured as crowned with vine leaves, clothed in fawnskins and carrying the thyrsus, and dancing with wild abandon. The Maenads are the most significant members of the Thiasus, the retinue of Dionysus.
