Seriphos (or Serifos) is a Greek island in the Aegean Sea, located in the western Cyclades, south of Kythnos and northwest of Siphnos.
When Acrisius was warned by an oracle that his own grandson would kill him, he cast his daughter (Danae) and her infant son Perseus adrift at sea in a wooden chest. It was the island of Seriphos where the vessel had come ashore.
