Origem do nome

Eta and Zeta Aurigae, the 8th and 9th stars of Auriga in the Almagest, were referred to as "the kids" - Eriphoi (Greek), Haedi (Latin), al-Jadayain (Arabic; al-Sufi). Hyginus (Poetica Astronomica, 2. 13) mentions the Greek astronomer Cleostratus of Tenedos (5th cen. BC) pointed out "the kids" among the stars. "Saclateni" appeared in the Alfonsine Tables ("Tabule astronomice Alfonsi Regis", 1492 print) and may be a corrupted Latinization of the Arabic Gadi-thani, "second kid" (Mesnard 1949, "Les noms arabes d'étoiles", Ciel et Terre, Vol. 65, p. 70)
