Constellations adwaith
1. Constellation - Origin
In the sky-map of ancient
Babylon, constellations had
two different roles. One set
of constellations were the
representation of gods and
their symbols; the other set
represented farming
calendar. These figures
developed in stages from
~3200 BC to ~500 BC.
2. Constellation - History
There are 88 officially recognized
constellations in the sky, and these
astronomical patterns have a
fascinating and long history. Forty-eight
of the constellations are known as
ancient or original, meaning they were
talked about by the Greeks and
probably by the Babylonians and still
earlier peoples. After the 15th century,
with the age of the great discoveries
and worldwide navigation, the
southernmost parts of the sky became
known to man and had to be charted.
