The Aethiopian queen Κασσιόπη is the mythological source for the naming of the constellation of Cassiopeia. According to the myth, she was punished by the god Poseidon, who rules the oceans, for boasting that she and her daughter Andromedawere more beautiful than the daughters of the sea-god Nereus, the Nereids. Poseidon chained her to a chair and placed her in the heavens near the pole, so that as the heavens rotate, she is upside-down half the time.
