Teen Ta Tseang Keun[1] or Tëen ta tsëang keun[2] meaning "Heaven's Great General",[3] was a Chinese constellation (Chinese: 星官) in the region of Lóu (Chinese: 婁宿天區). It contained stars of the western constellations Andromeda and Triangulum. Allen based identification of Chinese star names by the English astronomer John Williams (1797–1874) and the naturalist John Reeves.[4] But Allen lacked last word kuen as Tien Ta Tseang[3] and also transliterated it as Tsien Ta Tseang.[5]
