Best Answer

Ariadne is the immortal wife of Dionysos; her name means "Most Holy". She was considered to be a goddess by some but merely a companion for Dionysus by others. Now her name connotated her position as, "the lady of the labrynth." This implied numerous things including the fact that she may have been considered a lady of the intertwined (weaving). This has led some scholars to believe she was granted divinity over weaving.

In other renditions, she is stated to be a goddess, but it is only an epithet. In answer to your question, she is associated with the Minotaur's labyrinth, which she was said to be the ruler of.

I am not sure of what, but she was.AnswerAriadne ( from a Cretan-Greek form for arihagne, "utterly pure" ) was a fertility goddess of Crete, and was the first divine personage of Greek mythology to be immediately recognized in Crete.
