(
Latin for ''
Telescope '') is a minor southern
Constellation identified and named by
Nicolas Louis De Lacaille , the
18th Century French Astronomer , a student of the southern skies.
Since it was introduced in the 17th century, and, as a southern constellation, was not visible to Mediterranean culture, there is no earlier mythology associated with it.
