The asteroid belongs to the Cybele Group, a dynamic group of asteroids beyond the Hecuba Gap . The members' orbits are in 7: 4 resonance with the planet Jupiter , which stabilizes them. The group was named after the asteroid (65) Cybele .
(13096) Tigris was on August 6, 2003 after the river Tigris named.
