Research has also indicated two Iakkhos, one, the babe born of Demeter or Persephone who is associated with Dionysos in these mysteries, and another which is a youth and herder that I see logically as Apollon as I have discussed more on my own blog.Daphne Lykeionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02085120484245732542noreply@blogger.com
