In ancient times, the constellation was considered a small group of stars withinCentaurus, and was thought to have been an animal killed, on behalf of Centaurus. It was not separated from Centaurus until Hipparchus named it Therion (meaning beast) in the 200s BC. No particular animal was associated with it until the Latin translation of Ptolemy's work identified it with the wolf.
