Sažetak
The ‘ Seven’ of the Sumerian poem describing Gilgamesh’ s travel to the Cedar Forest represent the constellation of the Pleiades, akk. Sebittu, sum. Iminbi. This asterism served as orientation aid to the hero, given to him by the Sun-god Utu. The practice of celestial orientation in the Arabian Desert is attested in the writings of Diodorus Siculus.
