Most of the "classical" constellations were named by the ancient Greeks. I believe this includes Sagittarius.
sagittarius is the constellation of Archery
No- Sagittarius IS a constellation.
Sagittarius, which is latin for 'The Archer', is the ninth sign of the zodiac. It is named after the Sagittarius constellation.
Sagittarius is a constellation not a star XD
Yes it is
It was the Babylonians who first identified the constellation and gave it the qualities of an Archer. The Greeks kept that association and by some account, the centaur represented is Chiron, who was a renowned Archer (in other accounts, he is the nearby constellation of Centaurus). The Romans, to avoid confusion, simply called the constellation what it was, an Archer, which in Latin is Sagittarius.
Sagittarius
The Greeks called the constellation Toxotes.
The star constellation for December is Sagittarius.
Due to the Precession of the Equinoxes, the constellation of Sagittarius is currently found beyond the 25th degree of the sign of Sagittarius and mainly in the sign of Capricorn. Sagittarius is a constellation lying in the Ecliptic plane, between Scorpio and Capricorn, exactly opposite to Orion. FYI: αSco, Antares, is currently found in the 10th degree of the sign of Sagittarius.
No, but it has an "asterism", which might be confusing you. The "teapot" is an asterism in Sagittarius. You may think that is the minor constellation. Another possible source of confusion is the fact that there's another, smaller, constellation called "Sagitta".
