	Jiàn (Erect, 建), also called Jianxing, is a six-star asterism belongs to the Shi tradition and is preserved with a determinative-star coordinate in the Shi star catalogue quoted in the ''Kaiyuan zhanjing''. It lies north of Nandou and corresponds to part of modern Sagittarius. Modern reconstructions usually take ξ² Sgr as the determinative star and identify the other members with ο Sgr, π Sgr, d Sgr, ρ¹ Sgr, and υ Sgr. It was in existence at least by the 4th century BC.

	In 2026, the name of the historical constellation "~~Nandou~~" was suggested to be used for one of the stars in this constellation. There are some Chinese celestial records of ~~suspected supernovae/novae~~ that occurred near ~~Nandou; due to the early age, there are no corresponding records elsewhere in the world. Therefore, Nandou has played an important role in astrophysical research~~. Since ~~phi~~ Sgr is the determinative star of it, then this name should be applied to ~~phi~~ Sgr.		In 2026, the name of the historical constellation "Jian" was suggested to be used for one of the stars in this constellation. There are some Chinese celestial records of historical comets that occurred near Jian. Since xi² Sgr is the determinative star of it, then this name should be applied to xi² Sgr.
