Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Classical Dictionary of Biography, Mythology, and Geography: Based on the Larger Dictionaries Acoetes (altair-m), a poor Maeonian (ly dian), or Tyrrhenian, who served as pilot in a ship. The sailors, landing at the island of Ceos, brought with them on board a beautiful boy asleep, whom they wished to take with them; but Acoetes, who recognised in the boy the god Bacchus, dissuaded them from it, but in vain. When the ship had reached the open sea the boy awoke, and desired to be carried to Naxos, his native island. The sailors promised to do so, but did not keep their word; where upon the god disclosed himself in his majesty; vines began to twine round the vessel, tigers appeared; and the sailors, seized with madness, jumped into the sea, and were changed into dolphins. Acoetes alone was saved and conveyed to Naxos, where he was initiated in the Bacchic mysteries. This is the tale related by Bacchus himself, in the form of Acostes, to Pentheus (met. 111. 582 The story is founded on the Homeric Hymn to Dionysus.
