<P> On the way back to Seriphos Island , Perseus stopped in the kingdom of Aethiopia . This mythical Ethiopia was ruled by King Cepheus and Queen Cassiopeia . Cassiopeia , having boasted her daughter Andromeda equal in beauty to the Nereids , drew the vengeance of Poseidon , who sent an inundation on the land and a sea serpent , Cetus , which destroyed man and beast . The oracle of Ammon announced that no relief would be found until the king exposed his daughter Andromeda to the monster , and so she was fastened naked to a rock on the shore . Perseus slew the monster and , setting her free , claimed her in marriage . </P>
