Perseus.
Andromeda's mother had claimed that Andromeda was more beautiful than the Nereids. So Poseidon chains her to a sea cliff and sends the sea monster Cetus to eat her. She is saved by Perseus.
Perseus saved the people of the land by slaying the monstrous sea creature, Cetus, which threatened to destroy their kingdom. The creature had been sent by the sea god Poseidon as punishment, and the locals were forced to sacrifice the princess Andromeda to appease it. With the help of gifts from the gods, including a reflective shield and winged sandals, Perseus defeated Cetus and rescued Andromeda, thus freeing the people from their plight. His bravery and cunning not only saved the kingdom but also led to his eventual marriage to Andromeda.

She was to be sacrificed to a great sea monster called the Cetus (which is the greek origin of the word Cetacian, which means having to do with WHALES).
Perseus cut Medusa's head off first while he was on his way to save princess Andromeda from Cetus (cetus is also a constallation found in the night sky...he is a sea monster or a whale depending on how you look at it) the sea monster that was sent by Poseidon.....Andromeda was the sacrifice so cetus would eat her and not the whole city....The king decided who was the sacrifice and he choose his own daughter..... what family love, right????? one of the only reason i know this is because i had to do a project on the constallation Cetus and i needed to know the myth.....

The constellations associated with the story of Perseus saving Andromeda from Cetus are Perseus, Andromeda, and Cetus. These constellations are part of Greek mythology and are visible in the night sky.
Perseus.
No, Cetus does not border the Andromeda constellation. Cetus is located near the constellations of Pisces, Aquarius, and Taurus, while Andromeda is adjacent to the constellations of Cassiopeia, Perseus, and Pegasus.
Andromeda's mother had claimed that Andromeda was more beautiful than the Nereids. So Poseidon chains her to a sea cliff and sends the sea monster Cetus to eat her. She is saved by Perseus.
The story of Perseus and Medusa involves him passing a coastal city plagued by a vicious seamonster called Cetus on his way back from killing Medusa. The people were sacrificing Andromeda (who Perseus fell in love with) to Cetus because it was ruining their lives and they were trying to placate it. Perseus showed Cetus Medusa's head and Cetus turned to stone. He then took Andromeda with him on his journey home and later married her. Cassiopeia was the mother of Andromeda. Cepheus, Andromeda's father, is also a constellation, as is Andromeda (chained to a rock).
It is named for Andromeda, daughter of Cassiopeia, from the Greek myth, who was chained to a rock to be eaten by the sea monster Cetus.
Cetus, sent by Poseidon.
Perseus saved the people of the land by slaying the monstrous sea creature, Cetus, which threatened to destroy their kingdom. The creature had been sent by the sea god Poseidon as punishment, and the locals were forced to sacrifice the princess Andromeda to appease it. With the help of gifts from the gods, including a reflective shield and winged sandals, Perseus defeated Cetus and rescued Andromeda, thus freeing the people from their plight. His bravery and cunning not only saved the kingdom but also led to his eventual marriage to Andromeda.
Lacerta does not border Andromeda, Cetus, Pisces, or Pegasus. It is a small and faint constellation located in the northern hemisphere that does not directly connect with the others mentioned.
In Greek mythology, Cetus is a sea monster sent by Poseidon to punish Queen Cassiopeia for her vanity. Perseus ultimately defeats Cetus as part of his quest to rescue Princess Andromeda. The constellation Cetus represents this sea monster in the night sky.
