Hansa (minor planet designation: 480 Hansa), provisional designation 1901 GL, is a stony asteroid and the namesake of the Hansa family located in the central region of the asteroid belt, approximately 56 kilometers (35 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 21 May 1901, by astronomers Max Wolf and Luigi Carnera at the Heidelberg Observatory in southwest Germany.^[1] The S-type asteroid has a rotation period of 16.19 hours and possibly an elongated shape.^[4] It was named after the Hanseatic League, a medieval European trade association.^[2]
