			== IAU Working Group on Star Names ==
			In November 2025, it has been proposed to use the name "Kumba" for a star in the area to preserve the Balinese heritage. The star tau Aqr or HIP 112716 is in the base of Kumba. Constellation Kumba is mentioned in Palelintangan Prasi, dating roughly 700 CE, and is still used in Bali.
