Hyginus (11 km), is a small crater, but positioned in such a way that you can not pass it. It is at the crossroads of the two rilles Rima Hyginus, and is located on the Sinus Medii.
• Crater was named after Gaius Julius Hyginus (ca. 64 BC - AD 17), a latin author, student of the famous Cornelius Alexander Polyhistor. If is a native of Spain or Alexandria is uncertain.
