L'Indien, ou Oiseau indien[réf. nécessaire], est une constellation de l'hémisphère sud. La région qu'elle couvre, proche du pôle sud céleste, est relativement pauvre en étoiles et peu sont visibles à l'œil nu. L'acception « Oiseau indien » est relativement peu fréquente, en raison des risques de confusion avec la constellation de l'Oiseau de paradis.
