Note 443 — Chapter IV · PRE-CHRISTIAN GNOSTICS: THE ORPHICI

No. XLII. in Abel’s Orphica. Persephone was called Mise Kore at Pergamum (C. Radet, Revue des Études anciennes, January-March, 1911, p. 77), which shows how closely she had become identified with her consort. Otherwise the word is only known, I believe, as a name of Dionysos.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
