tíaso
  30

In ancient Greece an 'aunt' was a group of people (usually women) who consecrated themselves to a god, and also the place where they met. The original meaning was in the procession of followers of Dionysius, a retinue of drunken partygoers, to which were added the maenads and then the nymphs. It comes from voice 952; 953; 945; 963; 959; 962; (thíasos) which names a group of people with an end, and is as broad as "courtship, circus, company, . . . "
