ΙΣΜΑΡΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΡΟΔΟΠΗ
Βρισκόταν στη χώρα των Κικόνων κοντά στη θάλασσα, καταστράφηκε από τον Οδυσσέα (Οδ. ι 40), πλησίον δε υπήρχε άλσος με ιερό του Απόλλωνα και ιερέα το Μάρωνα, ο οποίος έδωσε στον Οδυσσέα τον ασκό με τον περίφημο Μαρώνειο οίνο που έδωσε στον Πολύφημο (Οδ. ι 198).
ΠΑΓΓΑΙΟ (Βουνό) ΚΑΒΑΛΑ
Dionysus discovered the vine, and being driven mad by Hera he roamed
about Egypt and Syria. At first he was received by Proteus, king of Egypt, but
afterwards he arrived at Cybela in Phrygia. And there, after he had been purified
by Rhea and learned the rites of initiation, he received from her the costume
and hastened through Thrace against the Indians. But Lycurgus, son of Dryas, was
king of the Edonians, who dwell beside the river Strymon, and he was the first
who insulted and expelled him. Dionysus took refuge in the sea with Thetis, daughter
of Nereus, and the Bacchanals were taken prisoners together with the multitude
of Satyrs that attended him. But afterwards the Bacchanals were suddenly released,
and Dionysus drove Lycurgus mad. And in his madness he struck his son Dryas dead
with an axe, imagining that he was lopping a branch of a vine, and when he had
cut off his son's extremities, he recovered his senses. But the land remaining
barren, the god declared oracularly that it would bear fruit if Lycurgus were
put to death. On hearing that, the Edonians led him to Mount Pangaeum and bound
him, and there by the will of Dionysus he died, destroyed by horses.
Commentary:
For the story of the hostility of Lycurgus to Dionysus, see Hom.
Il. 6.129ff., with the Scholia; Soph.
Ant. 955ff.; Tzetzes, Scholiast on Lycophron 273; Hyginus, Fab. 132; Serv.
Verg. A. 3.14; Scriptores rerum mythicarum Latini, ed. Bode, i. p. 39 (First Vatican
Mythographer 122). According to Sophocles, it would seem that Lycurgus suffered
nothing worse at the hands of his subjects than imprisonment in a cave, where
his frenzy gradually subsided. According to Hyginus, Servius, and the First Vatican
Mythographer, the furious king, in attempting to cut down the vines, lopped off
one of his own feet or even both his legs. It appears to be a common belief that
a woodman who cuts a sacred tree with an axe wounds himself in so doing. It is
said that when the missionary Jerome of Prague was preaching to the heathen Lithuanians
and persuading them to cut down their sacred woods, one of the converts, moved
by his exhortation, struck at an ancient oak with an axe, but wounded himself
in the legs and fell to the ground. The accident to this zealous convert closely
resembles the one which is said to have befallen the Edonian king in a similar
attempt on the sacred vine.
Commentary on Hom.
Il. 6.129ff
The legend of Lykoergos is one of a series which tell of the introduction of the
orgiastic worship of Dionysos, the opposition it encountered, and the punishment
inflicted on those who withstood it. The cult was of the nature of a mystic and
spiritual revival, and passed into Greece from Thrace. In the present passage
it is at home, for Lykoergos was king of the Edones, Soph. Ant.955.This great
religious movement spread over Greece apparently in the 7th cent. From its nature
it cannot but have aroused the bitterest antagonism among the established authorities.
It is highly probable that it absorbed, and in form was coloured by, more or less
related popular village customs springing from a primitive nature and vegetation
worship, but that in this more spiritual form it was essentially foreign there
can be little doubt. Other forms of the legend occur in Thebes (Pentheus), Patrae
( Paus.vii. 18. 3), Orchomenos (Minyadae), Argos (Proitidae).

ΗΔΩΝΙΣ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΕΛΛΑΔΑ
Γιος του Δρύαντος, ο οποίος τυφλώθηκε από τους θεούς ως τιμωρία για την ασεβή επιθετική συμπεριφορά, που επέδειξε στον Διόνυσο, όταν ο τελευταίος περνούσε από το βουνό Νύσα και αναγκάστηκε να καταφύγει στην Θέτιδα. Μετά από αυτό δεν έζησε για πολύ χρόνο (Ιλ. Ζ 130 κ.ε.).
Στον Λυκούργο αναφέρεται και ο Απολλόδωρος (Απλδ. 3,5,1).
Lycurgus, (Lukourgos). A king of Thrace, who, when Bacchus was passing through his country, assailed him so furiously that the god was obliged to take refuge with Thetis. Bacchus avenged himself by driving Lycurgus mad, and the latter thereupon killed his own son Dryas with a blow of an axe, taking him for a vine-branch. The land became, in consequence, sterile; and his subjects, having been informed by an oracle that it would not regain its fertility until the monarch was put to death, bound Lycurgus, and left him on Mount Pangaeus, where he was destroyed by wild horses.

Lycurgus (Lukourgos). A son of Dryas, and king of the Edones in Thrace. He is
famous for his persecution of Dionysus and his worship on the sacred mountain
of Nyseion in Thrace. The god himself leaped into the sea, where he was kindly
received by Thetis. Zeus thereupon blinded the impious king, who died soon after,
for he was hated by the immortal gods. (Hom. Il. vi. 130, &c.) The punishment
of Lycurgus was represented in a painting in a temple at Athens. (Paus. i. 20.
20.) The above Homeric story about Lycurgus has been much varied by later poets
and mythographers. Some say that Lycurgus expelled Dionysus from his kingdom,
and denied his divine power; but being intoxicated with wine, he first attempted
to do violence to his own mother, and to destroy all the vines of his country.
Dionysus then visited him with madness, in which he killed his wife and son, and
cut off one (some say both) of his legs; or, according to others, made away with
himself. (Hygin. Fab. 132, 242; Serv. ad Aen. iii. 14.) According to Apollodorus
(iii. 5.1), Dionysus, on his expeditions, came to the kingdom of Lycurgus, but
was expelled; where-upon he punished the king with madness, so that he killed
his son Dryas, in the belief that he was cutting down a vine. When this was done,
Lycurgus recovered his mind; but his country produced no fruit, and the oracle
declared that fertility should not be restored unless Lycurgus were killed. The
Edonians therefore tied him, and led him to mount Pangaeum, where he was torn
to pieces by horses. Diodorus (i. 20, iii. 65) gives a sort of rationalistic account
of the whole transaction. According to Sophocles (Antig. 955, &c.), Lycurgus was
entombed in a rock. (Comp. Ov. Trist. v. 3, 39.)

ΣΑΜΟΘΡΑΚΗ (Νησί) ΑΝΑΤΟΛΙΚΗ ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ & ΘΡΑΚΗ
Κατά τον Απολλόδωρο ήταν γιος της Ηλέκτρας από τον Δία και αδελφός του Δαρδάνου (Απολδ. 3,12,1), που αγαπήθηκε από τη Δήμητρα και κατακεραυνώθηκε από τον Δία για λόγους ζηλοτυπίας (Οδ. ε 125)
Iasion or Iasius (Iasion or Iasios). Son of Zeus and Electra, beloved by Demeter,
who, in a thrice-ploughed field (tripolos), became by him the mother
of Pluto or Plutus in Crete. He was slain by Zeus with a thunderbolt. From Iasion
came the patronymic Iasides, a name given to Palinurus, as a descendant of Atlas.
Iasion, also called Iasius, was, according to some, a son of Zeus and Electra, the daughter of Atlas, and a brother of Dardanus (Apollod. iii. 12.1; Serv. ad Aen. i. 384; Hes. Theog. 970; Ov. Amor. iii. 10, 25); but others called him a son of Corythus and Electra, of Zeus and the nymph Hemera, or of Ilithyius, or of Minos and the nymph Pyronia (Schol. ad Theocrit. iii. 30; Serv. ad Aen. iii. 167; Eustath. ad Hom; Hygin. Fab. 270). At the wedding of his sister Harmonia, Demeter fell in love with him, and in a thrice-ploughed field (tripolos) she became by him the mother of Pluton or Plutus in Crete, in consequence of which Zeus killed him with a flash of lightning (Hom. Od. v. 125, &c.; Hes. Theog. 969, &c.; Apollod. l. c.; Diod. v. 49, 77; Tzetz. ad Lycoph. 29; Conon, Narrat. 21). According to Servius (ad Aen. iii. 167), Iasion was slain by Dardanus, and according to Hyginus (Fab. 250) he was killed by his own horses, whereas others represent him as living to an advanced age as the husband of Demeter (Ov. Met. ix. 421, &c.). In some traditions Eetion is mentioned as the only brother of Dardanus (Schol. ad Apollon. Rhod. i. 916; Tzetz. ad Lycoph. 219), whence some critics have inferred that Iasion and Eetion are only two names for the same person. A further tradition states that Iasion and Dardanus, being driven from their home by a flood, went from Italy, Crete, or Arcadia, to Samothrace, whither he carried the Palladium, and where Zeus himself instructed him in the mysteries of Demeter (Serv. ad Aen. iii. 15, 167, vii. 207; Dionys. i. 61; Diod. v. 48; Strab. vii.; Conon, l. c.; Steph. Byz. s. v. Dardanos). According to Eustathius (ad Hom.), Iasion, being inspired by Demeter and Cora, travelled about in Sicily and many other countries, and every where taught the people the mysteries of Demeter.
