#OTD the ancient Athenian #Dionysia would have started, a week-long celebration in honour of #Dionysos with lots of drinking and #theatre productions of tragedies, comedies, and satyr plays. 🎭

As it's also #BumDayMonday, I'm starting the Dionysia off with two beautiful Dionysian bum cheeks.

#OTD is the #Diasia, an appeasement festival in honor of #Zeus Meilikhios (Kindly Zeus), which took place in the Attic countryside to welcome spring with solemn but joyful celebrations and honour the chthonic aspect of Zeus. There were night rites with sheep or pig-shaped bread or pastry offerings, sacrifices, feasting, dances and hymn chanting 🎶

@pagan @antiquidons The last day of the #Anthesteria is called #Chytroi or #Khýtroi, 'The Pots'. It's a festival of the dead where fruit or pulse is offered to the souls of the dead, who are then bidden to depart, and to #Hermes Chthonios, who should guide them back to the underworld. No one is supposed to eat the pottage, which is food of the dead. A rehearsal to select the players for the City Dionysia also takes place on this day.

Today is the #Pithoigia, the first day of the Athenian #Anthesteria festival in honour of #Dionysos. It lasts three days, from the 11th to the 13th of the month of Anthesterion.

The Anthesteria festival celebrates the beginning of Spring and in particular the maturing of the wine stored at the previous vintage, whose pithoi (storage-jars) were now ceremoniously opened. Spring flowers decorate the house and drinking vessels.

Wood burned my #Ares tribal boarhead shield design into wood. Dunno why I didn't realize this was a thing, but I love it.

"The New College of Florida threw out thousands of books, including those which touch on gender diversity. While many today know of Dionysus' ties to gender non-conformity, not many know Dionysus is also a god of literature: whether it's dithyrambs, poetry, drama or comedy, Dionysus is a god of the written word and its power to transmit information.
