| 2317 | ENT_SABAZIOS | syncretized_with | ENT_DIONYSUS | high | Herodotus 5.7 names Dionysus as one of the three Thracian gods; scholarship consistently identifies the Thracian ecstatic mystery deity in this position as Sabazios. Aristophanes mocks the Sabazian cult alongside Dionysian rites (Wasps 9-10; Birds 874). The identification is ancient and widespread.
