Septentrional information


A 17th-century map of France (1687), by Alain Manesson-Mallet, shows the Septentrion atop of the chart, indicating the northern region of the country; the other regions indicated are the Occident (west), the Orient (east), and the Midy (meridion).
The asterism of the Big Dipper (shown in this star map in green) lies within the constellation of Ursa Major.

Septentrional, meaning "of the north", is a Latinate adjective sometimes used in English. It is a form of the Latin noun septentriones, which refers to the seven stars of the Plough (Big Dipper), occasionally called the Septentrion.

In the 18th century, septentrional languages was a recognised term for the Germanic languages.[1]
