Persephone's spouse

edit

"which, in the Orphic theogony, will lead to the birth of Demeter. Zeus would then have raped Demeter, who would have given birth to Persephone, who marries Dionysus" -- Is this accurate? Persephone is usually an underworld goddess, wife of Hades. Was there some other tradition with a radically different Persephone? The page on Dionysus suggests that in some traditions, Dionysus was Persephone's sibling or child but does not mention being a spouse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.11.153.75 (talk) 06:23, 15 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
