Star Charts are basically maps of the night sky. Astronomers divide the star Charts into grids to easily use them.

The oldest star charts known may be a carved ivory Mammoth tusk that was discovered in Germany in the year 1979. This manufactured article is 32,500 years mature and has a statue that is for the most part known to resemble the constellation Orion. A drawing on the wall of the Lascaux caves in France has a graphical demonstration of the Pleiades open cluster of stars. This is dated to 33,000 to 10,000 years ago. Researcher Michael A. Rappenglueck has suggested that a panel in the same caves depicting a charging bison, a man with a birds head and the head of a bird on top of a piece of wood, together may depict the summer triangle, which at the time was a circumpolar formation. Another star chart panel, created more than twenty one thousand years ago, was found in the La Tete du Lion grotto. The bovine in this panel may represent the constellation Taurus, with a pattern representing the Pleiades located just above it.
