Northern Dene (Asterism Names)
In his thesis 2021, Chris Cannon gave seven lists of asterisms of ethnics of Alaska and Northern Canada.
Most of the asterisms are all-sky-constellations, subdivided in various parts (like legs, arms, the heart of the creature etc.). In total, he lists 181 terms from seven ethnics. Here is an overview:
