Astronomical representations in this section all share common features, primarily the inclusion of the AR1 decan list with standard decanal deities (four others use variant deities) and similar depictions of the circumpolar group.
AR1 occurs in thirteen astronomical representations known to date, with a further five astronomical representations that have been hypothesised to have originally been based on the AR1 model, but are too fragmentary to be entirely certain, making a total of eighteen occurences.
