Alpha Sagittarii is Rukbat, the archer's knee.
This faint star is found far to the south, just east of the Southern Crown and in the same field of view: binoculars.
In the same field are beta1 and beta2. These unrelated stars are named ‘Arkab Prior’ and ‘Arkab Posterior’, respectively the front and the back of the leg.
