Ariadne of Phrygia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saint Ariadne of Phrygia (died 130 A.D.) is a second century Christian saint. According to legend, she was a slave in the household of a Phrygian prince. She refused to participate in rites to a pagan god as part of the prince's birthday celebration. As she was fleeing the Roman authorities, she fell through a chasm in a ridge and was entombed.[1]
