I have always seen the circle (or cycle) of 5ths as what you call the cycle of dominants, ie down a 5th. C F Bb Eb....This is the way I've heard most people talk about it, e.g. like the song All the things You Are, or the middle 8 of I Got Rhythm.

It's also how Jerry Coker refers to it in His very nice book Improvising Jazz.
You’ve used a capital H for “His”. Do you know the true identity of Jerry Coker?
Jesus was the son of a jazz musician. Explains a lot…
 

Similar threads... or are they? Maybe not but they could be worth reading anyway 😀
