Library /sys$common/syshlp/HELPLIB.HLB  —  ORACLE_RDB72, System Tables, RDB$SYNONYMS
    The RDB$SYNONYMS system table connects the user-visible name of
    an object to the stored name of an object. The user-visible name
    of an object might be replicated in multiple schemas, whereas
    the stored name of an object is unique across all schemas and
    catalogs. This table is present only in databases that have the
    SQL multischema feature enabled.

    Unlike rows in other system tables, the rows in the RDB$SYNONYMS
    system table are compressed. The following table provides
    information on the columns of the RDB$SYNONYMS system table.
