Question
According to Heliodorus of Emesa, staring at a statue of this figure caused Persinna to give birth to a very pale girl, later named Charikleia (“kah-ree-KLAY-uh”), and married to Theagenes. Conon’s version of this woman’s story replaces supernatural elements with a failed kidnapping attempt by Phoinike near Joppa (“YAH-puh”). This woman is betrothed to Calibos in an invention of the 1981 film (*) Clash of the Titans. After interrupting this woman’s marriage ceremonies to claim that she was promised to him, her uncle Phineus was killed. This Ethiopian princess was sacrificed to Cetus after her mother boasted that either she or this daughter of Cepheus was more beautiful than the Nereids. For 10 points, name this figure who is rescued from the rock to which Cassiopeia (“ka-see-oh-PEE-uh”) chained her by Perseus. ■END■
