But as the legends of Saturn are not all derived from Noah, so neither do all the traditions concerning Bacchus appertain to Saturn. I shall simply separate and note such as appear to me to be in common, _e.g._ "that Bacchus found out the making of wine, the art of planting trees, and many things else commodious for mankind." ["And Noah, a husbandman, began to till the ground, and planted a vineyard, and drinking the wine was made drunk," Gen. ix. 20.][175] It is said there were several Bacchuses. This may be only a reduplication, such as we have seen in the case of Oannes, Nin, and Nebo, or as in the multiplications of Jupiter. "Joves omnes reges vocarunt antiqui."[176] [175] "The Scriptures tell us that Noah cultivated the vine; and all profane historians agree in placing Bacchus in the first ages of the world" (in proof of early cultivation of the vine).--Goguet, "Origin of Laws," i. 116. Compare _supra_, p. 213, "Saturnus _Sator_." Bryant says, "The history of Dionusus is closely connected with that of Bacchus, though they are two distinct persons." He supposes Dionusus to be Noah, and Bacchus Ham. But he may very well have embodied the traditions of both. Pausanius (lib. iii. 272) says Dionusus was exposed _in an ark_ and wonderfully _preserved_. He was also said to have been twice born, and to have had two fathers and two mothers, in allusion to the two periods of his existence separated by the Deluge. Dionusus (Orphic Hymn, 44, 1) is addressed as [Greek: elthe, makar Dionyse, pyrispore tauroumetôpe]. [176] The phrase "Father Bacchus," current among the ancients (_vide_ Hor. Odes. i. xviii.) has always struck me as singular. It is perfectly congruous with the tradition of Noah; but who will tell us its appropriate solar or astral application? On this subject Montfauçon says (i. 155)[177] apropos of a point to which I shall again refer, viz. that Bacchus was _Tauri_cornis. "Diodorus Siculus says that the horns are only ascribed to the second Bacchus, the son of Jupiter and Proserpine; but these distinctions of various Bacchus were minded only in the more ancient times, hardly known in their worship.... This will also hold good of most of the other gods who were multiplied in the same manner."
