Rotaneb Del Rotanev The strange names Sualocin and Rotanev first appeared for these stars in the Palermo Catalogue of 1814, and long were a mystery to all, and seemingly a great puzzle to Smyth, which he never perhaps solved, although he was very intimate with the staff at Palermo Observatory. Webb, however, discovered their origin by reversing the component letters, and so reading Nicolas Venator, the Latinized form of Niccolo Cacciatore, the name of the assistant and successor to Piazzi. But Miss Rolleston, in her singular book Mazzaroth, considered in some quarters as of authority, wrote that they are derived a from the "Arabic Scalooin, swift (as in the flow of water); and beta from the Syriac and Chaldee Rotaneb, or Rotanen, swiftly running (as water in a trough). For no part of theis scholarly (!) statement does there seem to be the least foundation. Burritt (1838) gave these titles as Scalovin and Rotanen.
