Antigone was the great great great great great granddaughter of the sea god Poseidon. But she wasn't called a goddess. Instead, she was called Princess, as the daughter of Theban King Oedipus and Queen Jocasta. She was supposed to have died by stoning or by being walled up in a remote cave. She indeed was walled up in a cave. But not too long afterwards, she committed suicide by hanging herself with her own halter.
