	The origin of the term "Andromeda" remains unclear. Possible derivatives are thinkable from ἀνδρίς (andris, woman) or ἀνδρός (andros, man/ human), or δρομάς (running/ runner).

Camels in the Biblical World, Eisenbraun, Winnona Lake, here Chap. 4</ref> Two-humped camels have been domesticated much earlier than one-humped camels: the first one being proven already in the 3rd millennium BCE while the dromedary is attested only from around 1100 BCE±100y onwards. This is also the time of the Trojan War and the Jewish "exodus", the migration of Israelites from Egypt to the promised land: seems to be a time of change all over the Mediterranean. It is not excluded that the name "Andromeda" of a princess in Greek mythology is somehow related to the domestication of dromedaries.		The origin of the term "Andromeda" remains unclear.

	[352] Andromeda, though she cowers a good way off, is pressed by the rush of the mighty Monster of the Sea [Cetus]. For her path lies under the blast of Thracian Boreas, but the South wind drives against her, beneath the Ram and the ~~Pair of Fishes, the hateful Monster, Cetus, set as he is a little above the Starry River.~~

	~~[630] The head of Andromeda is setting and against her is brought by the misty South the mighty terror, Cetus, but over against him in the North Cepheus with mighty hand upraised warns him back~~.
