jan 1, 1235 BC - Orpheus
Dies
Description:
Towards the end of his life, Orpheus disdained the worship of all gods except the sun. One early morning he went to the oracle of Dionysus at Mount Pangaion to salute his god at dawn, but was ripped to shreds by Thracian Maenads for not honoring his previous patron (Dionysus) and was buried in Pieria.
