Plutarch, Theseus 20.5: καὶ Ναξίων δέ τινες ἰδίως ἱστοροῦσι δύο Μίνωας γενέσθαι καὶ δύο Ἀριάδνας, ὧν τὴν μὲν Διονύσῳ γαμηθῆναί φασιν ἐν Νάξῳ καὶ τοὺς περὶ Στάφυλον τεκεῖ …

Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Antiquitates Romanae 7.2.4: … τέραν τοῦ ὀνόματος ἔσχε τὴν κλῆσιν, εἴθʼ ὅτι θηλυδρίας ἐγένετο παῖς ὢν καὶ τὰ γυναιξὶν ἁρμόττοντα ἔπασχεν, ὡς ἱστοροῦσί τινες, εἴθʼ ὅτι πρᾷος ἦν φύσει καὶ μαλακὸς εἰς ὀργήν, ὡς ἕτεροι γράφουσιν.
