The Greeks may have modified them, but the Babylonians and Egyptians were ahead of them, at least on the concepts. It is fundamental human nature to try to mentally arrange random dots into patterns, and then assigning meanings to the patterns.
We still do it today. Cloud formations are areas of white and grey, formed by water vapor and condensation nuclei. Have you never seen a horse, or a dragon, or a car shape in the clouds? (When our son was little, my wife used to call them "story clouds". ) It's the same soft of human pattern creation urge that we all have.

Most of the (northern) constellations we use today were invented in ancient times, especially by the ancient Greeks. More recently, a few were added (to fill the entire surface of the sky with constellations), and the limits between constellations were defined exactly.
The first constellations were, we believe, invented by the ancient Babylonians and Sumerians, and perhaps the Phoenicians. These were to give people a way to refer to the stars and constellations, and provided a heavenly anchor for their stories. Most of the northern hemisphere constellation names that we use today were invented, or adapted, by the ancient Greeks and Romans. The southern hemisphere constellations were largely named by sailors and mariners. It's likely that the people who lived in these southern lands had names of their own for the constellations and stars, but few of those are still in use.

No there are no circumpolar constellations on the equator.
There are no constellations in the solar system as the stars that make up the constellations are outside of our solar system.
