===Dionysus Zagreus===
In particular Iacchus was identified with [[Zagreus|Dionysus Zagreus]], who was a son of [[Zeus]] and Persephone.<ref>Parker, [https://books.google.com/books?id=ff51JeXhHXUC&pg=PA358 p. 358];  Grimal, s.v. Iacchus; Tripp, s.v. Iacchus; Smith, [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0104%3Aalphabetic+letter%3DI%3Aentry+group%3D1%3Aentry%3Diacchus-bio-1 s.v. Iacchus].</ref> This [[Orphism (religion)|Orphic]] Dionysus was, as an infant, attacked and dismembered by the Titans, but later reborn as Dionysus, the wine-god son of Zeus and [[Semele]], the daughter of [[Cadmus]], the first king of [[Thebes, Greece|Thebes]]. As noted above, Sophocles mentions "Iacchus of the bull's horns", and according to the 1st-century BC historian [[Diodorus Siculus]], it was this older Dionysus who was represented in painting and sculpture with horns, because he “excelled in sagacity and was the first to attempt the yoking of oxen and by their aid to effect the sowing of the seed”.<ref>Jiménez San Cristóbal 2013, [https://books.google.com/books?id=FmTnBQAAQBAJ&pg=PA279 pp. 279&ndash;280]; [[Diodorus Siculus]], [https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Diodorus_Siculus/4A*.html#4 4.4.2], see also [https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Diodorus_Siculus/3E*.html#64 3.64.1–2].</ref> [[Arrian]], the 2nd-century Greek historian, wrote that it was to this Dionysus, the son of Zeus and Persephone, "not the Theban Dionysus, that the mystic chant ‘Iacchus’ is sung".<ref>[[Arrian]], ''[[Anabasis of Alexander]]'' [http://www.loebclassics.com/view/arrian-anabasis_alexander/1976/pb_LCL236.181.xml?rskey=NlzLtT&result=1&mainRsKey=nBdH9M 2.16.3]</ref> And the 2nd-century poet [[Lucian]] refers to the "dismemberment of Iacchus".<ref>[[Lucian]], ''De Saltatione'' ("The Dance") 39 ([https://archive.org/stream/lucianhar05luciuoft#page/250/mode/2up Harmon, pp. 250, 251]).</ref>
