The exotic baryon Θ + (1540 MeV) is visualised as an expected (iso) rota-tional excitation in the Chiral Soliton Model. It is also argued as a Pentaquark baryon state in a constituent quark model with strong diquark correlations. I contrast the two points of view; observe the similarities and differences between the two pictures.
