Origem do nome

Arbitrarily applied in recent times, together with the Latin distinctions of "middle," "southern," and "northern" (for λ Sgr), from the ind-A (and later sci-A) constellation name al-qaus, "the Bow." For the ind-Arabs, al-qaus was marked by the curved line of stars ξ2, o, π, d, ρ and u Sgr (corresponding to what in other cultures was Sagittarius among the zodiacal signs). The sci-Arabs used the indigenous name for the Greeks' Archer, alternatively translated as al-rami.
