The legend of origin is; Zeus falls in love with Semele, however his wife Hera is jealous of him. Hera masquerades as an old lady and persuades Semele to ask Zeus to show her his powers. While Zeus shows his powers, Semele burns up and has a miscarriage. Zeus saves the baby and hides it under his calf. The god – Dionysos – comes into the world from the calf of Zeus. He is also known as the god of wine or the god of vintage. His symbol is the tree creeper. He is a supporter of civilization and peace.
