In Greek mythology, Iacchus is an uncertain person. It may be an epithet for Dionysus (in Eleusis, a son of Zeus and Demeter) or a separate deity, a son of Persephone or Demeter.
Also, in Euripedes' The Bacchae, according to the translation by Philip Vellacott, the Bacchants cry out "To dance, calling in unison on the son of Zeus, "Iacchus! Bromius!"
This suggests that they speak of Dionysus. Noting also that Bromius is a epithet of Dionysus, it can be assumed that Iacchus is too.it:Iacco es:IacoTemplate:Myth-stub
