Sabazios ( ancient Greek Σαβάζιος ), also Sabadios, was probably in Asia Minor ( Phrygian? ) Or Phoenician, adopted by the Greeks and Romans, and brought with Dionysos Zagreus and in conjunction deity. He was the son of Zeus and Persephone, and was dismembered by the Titans. He was considered a god of agriculture and obstetrics.

After Sabazios ( Zagreus ) was dismembered by the Titans followed his resurrection as Dionysus.

They saw him as the representative of the flourishing life of nature which succumbs to death and wakes up again and again. As a symbol of this annual renewal of nature, the snake was the symbol peculiar to him. His cult was orgiastic, as of Cybele, and connected with orgies. The higher level of education at the time of Demosthenes stayed away from him.

His cult came from Asia Minor to Thrace and came towards the end of the 5th century BC Athens. In the Roman period it spread to the west of the empire.
