"(3671) Dionysus is a tipo cupido asteroid discovered on May 27, 1984 by Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker at Mount Palomar .

The asteroid is named after the Greek god Dionysus .

There is evidence that it is a system of two bodies rotating around their common center of gravity. Designated S/1997 (3671) 1 , the moon is 0.4 km in diameter and lies at an average distance of about 2.2 km from the largest celestial body."

"The Theatre of Dionysus was a major open air theatre in ancient Greece, built at the foot of the Athenian Acropolis and forming part of the temenos of "Dionysus Eleuthereus". Dedicated to Dionysus, the god of plays and wine (among other things), the theatre could seat as many as 17,000 people, making it an ideal location for ancient Athens' biggest theatrical celebration, the Dionysia. It became the prototype for all Theatres of ancient Greece."
