Babylonian
The dictionary of Babylonian celestial names had been compiled by G. Kurtik (2007) based on Goessmann (1950). Kurtik's version is much improved and enriched, however it has been reworked by himself until his death in April 2023 and further reworked and translated to English by the research group led by Wayne Horowitz and Susanne M Hoffmann.
As we present them here, the references for the Babylonian Sky Culture are so rich that they need to go to another website.
Greco-Roman
The dictionary of Greco-Roman celestial names is compiled by members of the IAU WGSN.
The original sources are compiled in a separate page.
