Informations supplémentaires

Cassiopeia, a name associated with several figures in Greek mythology, is most famously known as the queen of Aethiopia. In myth, she is portrayed as a figure of exceptional beauty but also of great vanity and pride. The defining trait of Cassiopeia in Greek mythology was her hubris, or excessive pride. She boasted that she and her daughter, Andromeda, were more beautiful than the Nereids, the sea nymphs and daughters of the sea god Nereus. This claim did not sit well with the gods, particularly Poseidon, who was angered by her arrogance.
