                             The Cult of Dionysos was a cult dedicated to the Greek god of wine, grapes, and theater, Dionysos.

Part of this cult were a group of female followers called Maenads.[1] It was believed that when the cultists were threatened, Dionysos himself would come wielding the xiphos bearing his name to save them.[2] A core practice of the cultists was to perform hedonistic rituals, using a ceremonial xiphos in these revelries.[3]
