Interesting that is also called the chained woman constellation. "Almaak (Gamma Andromedae) is the third brightest star in the constellation Andromeda and one of the most beautiful double stars in the sky. Its Arabic name (also written as Almach, Almak, Alamak, and Alamaak) has nothing to do with the legend of Andromeda but refers instead to a kind of middle-eastern wild cat." . "The name Alpheratz is derived from the Arabic Al Surrat al Faras, which means “horse's navel” in reference to the star's previous inclusion in the constellation Pegasus. Another common name for Alpheratz is Sirrah. In Ptolemy's works the star is described as the “head of the woman in chains” in reference to Andromeda."
