MUSEUM REPLICA OF A UNIQUE, ROMAN PERIOD, GOD BACCHUS DIONYSUS BUST CHARIOT DECORATION FROM DUROSTORUM CIRCA III C. A.D.
Terracotta Replica of a Roman period bronze Bust application, decorating the chariot of a Roman general /legate of XI legion/ III c. AD, found in Durostorum's necropolis (modern Silistra, Bulgaria). The application depicts the Roman god Bacchus (Greek's Dionysus). The original artifact is currently in Regional Museum of History- Silistra.
Bacchus was the Roman god of agriculture, wine and fertility, equivalent to the Greek god Dionysus. Dionysius was said to be the last god to join the twelve Olympians. Supposedly, Hestia gave up her seat for him. His plants were vines and twirling ivy. He carried a pinecone-topped staff, and his followers were goat-footed Satyrs and Maenads, wild women who danced energetically during his festivals. Bacchus is the son of Jupiter.
