Cassandra (Κασσάνδρα) was a daughter of Priam (Πρίαμος) and Hecuba (Ἑκάβη), they were the king and queen of Troy (Τροία). Her siblings were, Hector (Ἕκτωρ,), Helenus (Ἕλενος), Paris (Πάρις), Deiphobus (Δηΐφοβος), Polyxena (Πολυξένη), and Ilione (Ἰλιόνη).
Apollo (Apollo) (Ἀπόλλων) was admired by Cassandra. Also, he endowed her with the gift of prophecy. Cassandra predicted the fall of Troy.
When she refused Apollo, he made sure that no one believed in Cassandra's predictions. So, the metaphor of Cassandra appeared, for a person whose predictions are not believed.
Cassandra had relations with Agamemnon, king of Mycenae.
