Origem do nome

From the sci-A constellation name al-sulahfat, "the Tortoise," for Lyra ( corresponding to the Greek image of a tortoise shell for the Lyre's soundboard). Transliterated as Azelfage, a Medieval Latin translator erroneously attributed this constellation name to Cygnus. Then in Renaissance times, the corruption "Azelfafage" was applied as a star name to π1 Cyg.
