ONE THOUSAND WOMEN, NONE LIKE YOU ARIADNE
ARIADNA or ARIADNE, in Greek mythology called “The most Pure Goddess, the Fertility Lady or Lady of the Maze”.
Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos and Queen Pasífae of Crete, who conquered Athens after the death of his son Androgeo. In exchange for peace, the Athenians had to send seven young men and seven maidens every year to feed the Minotaur (half man, half bull) who lived in a maze that looked like a temple. Many tried to kill him, but then got lost in the cavern of many tunnels. One year, Theseus, son of Aegean, the King of Athens, voluntary marched with other young men to liberate the people’s tribute.
Ariadne fell in love with Theseus at first sight. She gave him a magic sword and a ball of yarn, which she had made for him, so he could find his way out of the maze after killing the Minotaur.
Ariadne then escapes with Theseus. They were happy and have many descendents.
Ariadna or Ariadne, in the roman mythology is equal to the Goddess Liberia, and roman poets associate Ariadne with the Greek-minoica.
