Astronomers use modern constellation regions because they provide a more systematic and precise way to divide the sky into manageable sections. Ancient constellations were often based on mythological figures and varied across cultures, leading to inconsistencies. In contrast, modern constellations are defined by official boundaries established by the International Astronomical Union, allowing for standardized communication and identification of celestial objects. This clarity is essential for scientific research and navigation in astronomy.
A constellation of stars formed along the sky.
Its proper name is Ursa Major which is the Great Bear. The part of it that most people recognise are 7 stars, which are just part of the overall constellation. People refer to them by different names, including the Plough and the Big Dipper.

Ancient Greece did not commonly use bamboo, as it is not native to the region. The Greeks primarily utilized materials such as wood, marble, and clay for construction and crafting.

Um, It led to cultural diffusion because the surplus was traded with many cultures and soon other cultures wanted to use it as well.
They didn't use last names in many ancient cultures, and their way of more specifically identifying a person was by telling what city he or she was from.
