Can you loosen Orion's belt?

or lead out the Bear [d] with its cubs?
I was told that there would be no way that the writters would understand the stars this way.

Here we have traces of ancient mythology. In Job you can find the great battle with the water monster Lotan. They have found a carving with the Hunter leg posed with Orions belt and holding up a club that was 32,500 years old.
