The people of Ephesus hailed Antony as Dionysus Giver of Joy and Beneficent (\u0394\u03b9\u03cc\u03bd\u03c5\u03c3\u03bf\u03bd \u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u1f78\u03bd \u1f00\u03bd\u03b1\u03ba\u03b1\u03bb\u03bf\u03c5\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03c9\u03bd \u03c7\u03b1\u03c1\u03b9\u03b4\u03cc\u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03bc\u03b5\u03b9\u03bb\u03af\u03c7\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd), but to the greater part Plutarch asserts that he was Dionysus Carnivorous and Savage (\u1f60\u03bc\u03b7\u03c3\u03c4\u1f74\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u1f00\u03b3\u03c1\u03b9\u03ce\u03bd\u03b9\u03bf\u03c2)
 
Cf. Zanker 1996, p. 42: \u201cWhen Marc Antony came to Athens and Asia Minor, however, after the partition of the empire among the triumvirs (42 B.C.), he found the figure of Dionysus a much more attractive and effective model, in the manner of Alexander the Great. It was a role to which he was ideally  suited, given his  passionate nature, generosity, and naivet\u00e9, his love of wine, elegant parties, worldly women, and flashy affairs. When this new Dionysus arrived at Ephesus, drunk and accompanied by his followers dressed up as a thiasos, the Greeks there were reminded of the days of King Mithridates Eupator\u201d

When Antony made his entry into Ephesus, women arrayed like Bacchanals, and men and boys like Satyrs and Pans, led the way before him (\u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u03b3\u03bf\u1fe6\u03bd \u1f1c\u03c6\u03b5\u03c3\u03bf\u03bd \u03b5\u1f30\u03c3\u03b9\u03cc\u03bd\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2 \u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03bf\u1fe6 \u03b3\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1\u1fd6\u03ba\u03b5\u03c2 \u03bc\u1f72\u03bd \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u0392\u03ac\u03ba\u03c7\u03b1\u03c2, \u1f04\u03bd\u03b4\u03c1\u03b5\u03c2 \u03b4\u1f72 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03c0\u03b1\u1fd6\u03b4\u03b5\u03c2 \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u03a3\u03b1\u03c4\u03cd\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03a0\u1fb6\u03bd\u03b1\u03c2 \u1f21\u03b3\u03bf\u1fe6\u03bd\u03c4\u03bf \u03b4\u03b9\u03b5\u03c3\u03ba\u03b5\u03c5\u03b1\u03c3\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf\u03b9)
