Origem do nome

From some ind-A name hadari (an untranslated proper name), for one of a pair of stars, the other one being al-wazn. Sci-A authors ventured to identify these stars as α/β Cen or α/β Col, but exactly what two stars were originally intended, and the significance of their names, is unknown. "Hadar" was arbitrarily applied to β Cen in recent times.
