- Well, it isn't really a different constellation, but the Rokbeigalm see Orion as _Troríf S''aryón_ (from _trorif-a sa'aryon_), "the hunter with a bow". The arc of stars on its right side is seen as a bow, and the stars in the upper left is the arrow that the hunter is getting ready to nock. -Stephen (Steg) "cup half full, cup half empty - show me the f---ing cup!" ~ "no messiah" by lazy i
