Hello!
Ursa Major is one of the oldest Constellations. It contains the famous asterism, The Big Dipper!
This constellation is probably the most easily recognizable star pattern in the entire sky.
Almost every culture around the world throughout the ages had stories about the seven stars that we call the 'Big Dipper'.
If you think of the constellations as a giant puzzle in the sky, then the 1st piece you would start with is the Big Dipper.
It is the key to the puzzle of learning the night sky.
Because of its bright stars and the distinctive Big Dipper pattern, Ursa Major is one of the easiest constellations to find.
Also, because it is located near the North Pole of the sky, it never sets, and can be found all night as it rotates around the pole.
This type of constellation is called 'Circumpolar'.
The Big Dipper is part of the constellation 'Ursa Major', the Great Bear.
Several ancient cultures saw the shape of a bear among these stars.
However, some middle age European peoples also saw what looked like a wagon or wain,
and you might see this asterism referred to as the Great Wain in old English literature.
I've listed a number of interesting stories about Ursa Major from around the world on my 'Star Myths' page.
