We present an extensive study of the Sagittarius II (Sgr II) stellar system using Mega-Cam g and i photometry, narrow-band, metallicity-sensitive Calcium H&K doublet photometry, augmented with Keck II/DEIMOS multi-object spectroscopy. We are able to derive and refine the Sgr II structural and stellar properties: the colour-magnitude diagram implies Sgr II is old (12.0 ± 0.5) Gyr and metal-poor. The CaHK photometry confirms the metal-poor nature of the satellite ([Fe/H] CaHK = −2.32 ± 0.04 dex) and suggests that Sgr II hosts more than one single stellar population (σ CaHK[FeH] = 0.11 +0.05 −0.03 dex). From the deep spectroscopic data, the velocity dispersion of the system is found to be σ vr = 2.7 +1.3 −1.0 km s −1 after excluding two potential binary stars. Using the Ca infrared triplet measured from our highest signal-to-noise spectra, we are able to confirm the metallicity and dispersion inferred from the Pristine photometric metallicities: ([Fe/H] spectro = −2.23 ± 0.05 dex, σ spectro [Fe/H] = 0.10 +0.06 −0.04 dex). Sgr II's metallicity and absolute magnitude (M V = −5.7 ± 0.1 mag) place the system on the luminositymetallicity relation of the Milky Way dwarf galaxies despite its small size. The low, but resolved metallicity and velocity dispersions paint the picture of a slightly dark matter-dominated satellite. Furthermore, using the Gaia Data Release 2, we constrain the orbit of the satellite and find an apocenter of 118.4 +28.4 −23.7 kpc and a pericenter of 54.8 +3.3 −6.1 kpc. The orbit of Sgr II is consistent with the trailing arm of the Sgr stream and indicate that it is possibly a satellite of the Sgr dSph that was tidally stripped from the dwarf's influence.
