Nebra Disc Pendant or Brooch, Leather Cord, Sterling Clasp, 16" Cord, Gilded

Description: Nebra Disc Pendant or Brooch, Leather Cord, Sterling Clasp, 16" Leather Cord, Gilded (02-2409) *Note - the first 2 images are stock photos. Since July 1999, Germanic history has to be rewritten – through the discovery of a sky disk that two treasure hunters discovered on the middle mountain near Nebra. It is the oldest known representation of the cosmos, in striking precision. An astonishing proof of the high culture of the supposedly primitive original Germans. This detailed piece of jewellery is 4.2 cm in diameter and 1 mm thick (the original disc measures 32 cm in diameter). 30 platelets represent the stars; the closely together group probably the seven-star, the Pleiades. The researchers do not agree on the large “designs”. In this way, the “sun” can also be interpreted as a full moon – and the “lunar shell” as partial eclipse – or, according to the latest findings, a ship. Some experts interpret the “sun sticky” at the edge as a Milky Way. What is undisputed, however, is that the gold arches on the edge, which are called horizon arcs by the astronomers, mark the sunrise and sunset in summer and winter. The sky disc is cast, worked and contented in firework in elaborate handwork. Barstones and barks are gilded with gold which makes them bright. The back is completely gold-plated. Two hangers on the back allow you to select which way to position the pendant. Other details: - Measures 4.2 cm - Weighs 20 grams- 45 cm leather strap with eyelet- 925 silver- Gold plated
