also constituted the Persian lunar station Bunda
and the similar Coptic Upuineuti, the
Foundation; but
β
alone marked the sieu Heu, Hiu, or
Hü, Void, anciently Ko, the central one
of the seven sieu which, taken together, were known
as Heung Wu, the Black Warrior, in the
northern quarter of the sky.
It is found in Hindu lists as Kalpeny, of
unknown signification.
On the Euphrates it was Kakkab Nammaχ,
the Star of Mighty Destiny, that may have given
origin to the title of the manzil [Al Sa'd al
Su'ud], as well as to the astrologers' name for
it - Fortuna Fortunarum ...

Gilbert Islanders are Polynesians, having
emigrated, according to their traditions, from
Upolu, Samoa, which they look upon as
te buto (Maori pito), the Navel of
the World. They never counted the nights of the
Moon beyond the twentieth, so far as Grimble was
able to ascertain, and in the vagueness of their
lunar calendar bore no resemblance to their
Micronesian neighbors of the Carolines
...
The Babylonians counted with 18
lunar stations in the night, together amounting
to 18 * 20º =
