	The Sumerian/ Akkadian constellation AD6/ ~~Pagru~~ is attested since the middle of the 2nd millennium BCE.		The Sumerian/ Akkadian constellation [[AD6\|AD<sub>6</sub>]] is attested since the middle of the 2nd millennium BCE. MUL.APIN is typically dated "before 1000 BCE" (Hunger and Steele 2019).

			=== Origin ===
			'''MUL.APIN (I ii 12).''' In the list of asterisms of the god Anu it is written:

			* <sup>mul</sup> <sup>d</sup>Za-ba<sub>4</sub>-ba<sub>4</sub> <sup>mul</sup>TI<sub>8</sub><sup>mušen</sup> u <sup>mul</sup>AD<sub>6</sub>

			* "The star of Zababa, the Eagle, and the Corpse."

			The Corpse is apparently part of the super-constellation of (god) Zababa with Eagle and Corpse, because this text follows the schema of an explanatory list which associates deities and constellations. The Eagle is in [[Aquila]] and the Zababa in modern [[Ophiuchus]]. The Corpse is located in the area next to Aquila. Scholars have suggested positions in the eastern parts of Aql and in Del.

			=== Re-Use ===
			As the suggested positions in eastern or east of Aquila almost coincide with the Almagest asterism of [[Antinous]] whose stars are well-described by coordinates, it has been suspected that Ptolemy used this Mesopotamian constellation as a template to create the new (political) asterism. At that time, in the 2nd century CE, with early Christianity and Egyptian belief in life after death, it is plausible that the Eagle in Aquila carries the Dead Man (or his soul) to the stars.

	The name Pagru was discussed and adopted by the IAU WGSN in June 2026.		The name Pagru was discussed and adopted by the IAU WGSN in June 2026. According to the Almagest, Antinous has two stars in his head: η and θ Aquilae; θ Aql was named Antinous in 2024. It was suggested in 2023 to name η Aql after the Mesopotamian predecessor "Pagru".

			Decision: Pagru was adopted to the IAU-CSN as name for η Aql on 18 June 2026.
