Arabic Star Names
What you seeTwo star charts on ink with faint field stars. Orion and Taurus show Betelgeuse, Rigel, Saiph, the three belt stars, Aldebaran and the Pleiades; the Summer Triangle shows Vega, Altair, Deneb and Sadr. Each named star is labelled in English and in its Arabic original.
What it meansMany star names used today came from Arabic through medieval Latin translations of Arabic astronomy. Betelgeuse comes from yad al-jawza', the hand of al-Jawza'; Altair and Vega from the flying and the swooping eagle; Deneb from the tail of the hen.
