The more common tradition, however, was, that Theseus left Ariadne in Naxos alive but here the statements again differ, for some relate that he was forced by Dionysus to leave her (Diod. In this case Ariadne was probably killed by Artemis at the moment she gave birth to her twin children, for she is said to have had two sons by Theseus, Oenopion and Staphylus. 324.) The words added in the Odyssey, Dionusou marturiêisin, are difficult to understand, unless we interpret them with Pherecydes by "on the denunciation of Dionysus," because he was indignant at the profanation of his grotto by the love of Theseus and Ariadne. 320), and she accordingly left Crete with him but when they arrived in the island of Dia (Naxos), she was killed there by Artemis. Theseus in return promised to marry her (Plut. § 2.) When Theseus was sent by his father to convey the tribute of the Athenians to Minotaurus, Ariadne fell in love with him, and gave him the string by means of which he found his way out of the Labyrinth, and which she herself had received from Hephaestus.

In Greek vase painting Ariadne is often depicted alongside Dionysos-either feasting with the gods of Olympos or in Bacchic scenes surrounded by dancing Satyroi (Satyrs) and Mainades. The god descended into the underworld to recover her and brought her back with him to Olympos. During his war against Argives with a band of sea-women, Ariadne was slain or turned to stone by King Perseus. Some say she was later slain by the goddess Artemis or else ascended to Olympos with her husband as an immortal.Īccording to others Ariadne's bridal with Dionysos occurred several generations before this when the god was still travelling the earth spreading his cult. It was then that Dionysos discovered her and made her his wife. When they landed on the island of Naxos Theseus abandoned her as she slept. In one, Ariadne, a daughter of King Minos of Krete (Crete), assisted Theseus in his quest to slay the Minotauros (Minotaur) and then fled with the hero aboard his ship. There were several versions of her story. Most Holy ( ari, adnos) Dionysus, Ariadne and Eros, Athenian red-figure cup C4th B.C., British MuseumĪRIADNE was the immortal wife of the wine-god Dionysos.
