The ram. 13th constellation of the zodiac
Believed to represent the ram whose fleece inspired Jason's saga. It appears that Babylonians?, Greeks?, Persians and Egyptians? all agreed on the name of the Ram for this constellation.
Its stars are rather faint except for Hamal?(alpha) and Sharatan(beta). Other important stars are Mesarthim(gamma1) and Botein(delta).
