Shapes and forms in the night sky, known as constellations, were named by ancient civilizations to help them navigate and understand the world around them. These constellations often represented mythological figures, animals, or objects, such as Orion the Hunter or Ursa Major the Great Bear. The Greeks, Romans, and various other cultures contributed to the constellation catalog, which served both practical purposes in agriculture and navigation, as well as cultural storytelling. Today, many of these ancient names and shapes remain recognized in modern astronomy.
