The constellation representing a hunter with weapons is Orion. It is one of the most recognizable star patterns in the night sky and is traditionally depicted as a mythological hunter carrying a club or sword, with a shield or animal skin in some artistic traditions.
Orion’s most famous feature is Orion’s Belt, a straight row of three bright stars: Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka. Below the belt hangs Orion’s Sword, which includes the Orion Nebula, a stellar nursery visible to the unaided eye under dark skies. Bright stars such as Betelgeuse and Rigel help outline the hunter’s figure.
The constellation is named for Orion in Greek mythology, although similar star figures appear in older traditions. Orion is especially prominent during winter evenings in the Northern Hemisphere. It is sometimes confused with neighboring Taurus, the bull Orion is said to hunt, or Scorpius, the scorpion associated with his death in one myth.
