	One of the prominent stars among the five stars of al-Kaff al-Ḫaḍīb is the 12th star [of Cassiopeia], located in the center of the back cushion. This star is marked on the astrolabe and referred to as al-Kaff al-Ḫaḍīb; it is also known as Sanām al-Nāqa (the Hump of the Camel), due to three preceding stars, situated on the right hand of the Chained Woman, Andromeda as named by Ptolemy. These three stars were mentioned by Ptolemy among the strars of Andromeda [the 7th, 8th, and 9th (ι, κ, λ Andromedae)].

	Adjacent to the northernmost of these three stars lies another star that, together with the others, forms the head of the Camel. A sequence of smaller, faint stars connects this star to the bright one in the center of the back cushion, beginning near the hump and extending down to the mid-neck before ascending again to link with the head. This arrangement resembles a slender, fine bred camel with a thin neck and small head.
