The Nebra Sky Disc

The Nebra Sky Disc is an early Germanic depiction of the sky. It is dated back to either ~1600B.C. (Bronze Age) or the first millenium B.C. (Iron Age). It is exhibited in the Halle State Museum of Prehistory, Halle, Germany.

Archeologist can only speculate about what is really depicted: the large spot they interpret as sun, the sickle as the moon. In that case relations are wrong and the bright side of the moon is facing away from the sun.

Readers of this blog already know that the skies have not always been like today: meaning the big sphere on the left likely is Mars, who devastated Earth around the time the disc was crafted.

The arc on the bottom likely is the remaining ring of the Apsu, as seen from central Europe.
