Orion's Belt, consisting of three bright stars—Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka—has been recognized since ancient times, but it does not have a single astronomer who named it. The name "Orion" comes from Greek mythology, where Orion was a hunter. The belt itself has been referenced by various cultures throughout history, including the Egyptians and Mesopotamians, who associated it with their own mythologies and star lore.
