Roberto Calasso wrote regarding Ariadne (in The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony), that she died many different and often conflicting deaths, more than any other figure in Greek myth.
I enjoyed this. It's as though once Ariadne had fulfilled her function of treacherous woman helping Theseus kill her brother, the story writers didn't know what to do with her. I like this version!

Thanks so much Jane. I agree, she's far too interesting a character to be left stranded on a lonely island
I’m giving her an alternative history right this minute :)
That sounds interesting, let me know how it pans out
I will! Getting close enough to the end to see what that is.
