In Greek "both votary and god are called Bacchus". Burkert, str. 162. For the initiate as Bacchus, see Evripid, Bacchae491. For the god, who alone is Dionysus, see Sofoklej, Oedipus Rex 211 and Euripides, Hippolytus 560.
Sutton, p. 2, mentions Dionysus as The Liberator in relation to the city Dionysia festivals. In Euripides, Bacchae379–385: "Opravlja to funkcijo, da se pridruži plesu, [380] da se smeje z flavto in da konec skrbi, kadar god slast grozdja pride ob praznikih bogov in na bršljanovih pogostitvah pehar prelije nad seče moške."
Pseudo-Apollodorus of Athens, BibliothecaLibrary and Epitome, 1.3.2. "Orpheus also invented the mysteries of Dionysus, and having been torn in pieces by the Maenads he is buried in Pieria."

Pliny attributes the invention of the triumph to "Father Liber" (who by Pliny's time was identified with Bacchus and Dionysus): see Pliny, Historia Naturalis, 7.57 (ed. Bostock) at Perseus: Tufts.edu
