Bakhus, also known as Bacchus, is the Roman god of wine, fertility, and revelry. He is often associated with the Greek god Dionysus, who shares similar attributes. Bakhus is depicted as a joyful figure, often surrounded by vines, grapes, and followers known as Maenads or Satyrs, symbolizing the pleasures of life and nature. In art and literature, Bakhus represents the spirit of celebration and the transformative power of wine. Festivals dedicated to him, such as Bacchanalia, were held in ancient Rome, celebrating abundance and freedom. His influence can still be seen in modern culture, particularly in wine-related festivities.
