Baccus (or Dionysus) god of wine, viticulture and fruit growing in general, represents all the prosperity of nature in its various manifestations. Identified with Libero, he's part of a trio with Libera and Cerere. His name would come from verb Hebrew "baccah"," that means " to makes din ", that was what happened in its debauches of drunks.

The nymph Proserpine (called Persefone by Greeks) was the Cerere's beautiful daughter; among the ancient people she symbolized the regular repetition of the harvest, in as much as, a legend was linked to her, namely her rape by Pluto, God of the dead men, who was fell in love with her beauty. The rape of her daughter caused a such pain to Cerere, goddess of the crops, that she stopped the sprouting of the grain and a tremendous dryness destroyed the harvests, so it was unavoidable the involvement of gods' father, Giove, who established a pact with Pluto: Proserpine would be remained with the God of the dead men for a third part of the year and for the remaining two thirds parts she would have inhabited the sky with Cerere. It is in this last period of the year that the grain sprouts almost to demonstrate the Proserpine's presence on Earth.
