It has the traditional name '''Vindemiatrix''', which comes from [[Greek language|Greek]] through [[Latin]] and means Grape Gatherer. Vindemiatrix is a yellow giant star of [[apparent magnitude]] 2.83 and [[stellar classification|spectral class]] G8 III about 102 [[light year]]s from Earth. It has a luminosity 83 times that of the [[sun]] with a surface [[temperature]] of 4990 [[kelvin]].{{Citation needed|date=May 2010}} There is evidence that Vindemiatrix is part of the [[Hyades]] group, associated with the cluster of that name in the constellation [[Taurus (constellation)|Taurus]].{{Citation needed|date=September 2009}} ==Etymology== The traditional names Vindemiatrix and Vindemiator are from Latin ''vindēmiātrix, vindēmitor'' "the grape-harvestress". Additional medieval names are Almuredin, Alaraph, Provindemiator, Protrigetrix, and Protrygetor.
