Mount Nysa



Dionysus actually born at Thebes, Boeotia, in most common version, where his mother Semele was daughter of the king. Then brought up on Nysa, and later in the East. I expect someone will patch in a link to more details soon...
http://www.csun.edu/~hcfll004/dionysos.html
acoording to this site several places lay claim to be his birthplace
Dracanum, Icarus, Naxos and on a Mount Nysa (which is apparently in Ethiopia, Libya, India, Thrace, or somewhere else)
other sites mention Thebes as being a supposed birthplace.

He also appears to have been twice born!
