Grus in Chinese astronomy
The modern constellation Grus lies across one of the quadrants symbolized by the Black Tortoise of the North (北方玄武, Běi Fāng Xuán Wǔ), and The Southern Asterisms (近南極星區, Jìnnánjíxīngōu), that divide the sky in traditional Chinese uranography. Constellation Grus in Chinese sky is not fully seen. Alnair (Alpha Gruis) and Tiaki (Beta Gruis) are bright stars in this constellation that possibly never seen in Chinese sky. The name of the western constellation in modern Chinese is 天鶴座 (tiān hè zuò), meaning "the heaven crane constellation".
