Plus the Subaru car logo pays tribute to this constellation. I thought I'd share that random trivia with you all.

Native American legend says they were seven sisters chased by the great bear up a giant tree. the bear is in the sky, too and the tree stump is the devil's tower. the sides of the tower were clawed by the bear.

KAITLYNMARIA, true, but apparently one of the seven stars in the constellation is not visible, which is why the Subaru logo uses 6 stars.

Oddly enough, Fuji Heavy Industries which later became Subaru, has the Pleiades on its logo.
