Perseus was born in a cage.

the person above my post is dumb, PErseus was not born in a cage. Zeus Disguised himself as the king and got into the bed with the queen, and the king found out and cursed Zeus so the king sent the pregnant queen into a casket and sailed off into the ocean. The mother died but PErceus was still alive and was found by a fisherman.

u guys are all stupid he was born in a cage when his mother had a baby with Zeus then she was put in a treasure trunk that drifted in the ocean and ended up on shore of an island and the kings brother found them and helped raise perseus and did u know the question was when it doesnt have a when its a myth

No one knows when Perseus was born.

And what happened was that King Acrisius was told by an oracle of Apollo that his daughter, Danae, would have a son who would kill him. He got angry at that so he locked her in a tower with only a small window. She was miserable and that's when Zeus came to her and he turned the cold dark tower into a sunny meadow. The King saw the light shining from the window and ordered his men to tear down a wall so he could get in. When he got in there sat Danae and a baby in her lap. "I named him Perseus" she said. The king got mad and locked them in a chest and cast them out to sea.

Perseus was born when Zeus disguised himself as the king and went to the castle. In the room the queen was sleeping in her bed. He seduced her and they had sex. The king came back and saw his wife and Zeus, Zeus transformed into a bird and flew away. Disgusted with what happened, the king took his wife and the child and locked them up in a casket. He threw it into the sea, the mother died by drowning, Perseus being half god half mortal didn't. A fisherman found him and raised him as his own.

This question can't be answered fully. The story of Perseus is Greek mythology so we even don't know if the events in the sotry really took place in real! So the when part I unfortunately cannot answer. But the when part I can. According to the mythology, Perseus first lived in the Greek city of Argos. After the action of the king, Danae and Perseus 'travelled' towards the Greek island Seriphos.
