"They were not aware of the calendars of today with their named days and months," she added. "When the constellation of the sky matched that on the disc they knew for example that it was the beginning of spring." [link to www.swissinfo.ch] |

The only way that anyone gets something for nothing, is that someone else has given up something for nothing. |

The shallow curves on the sides are very deliberate shape - 82 degrees. The site where the disk was found, that’s where the sun sets mid-winter. That’s where the sun sets mid-summer. The angle between both is precisely eighty two degrees. This angle responds to the journey of the sun between summer and winter for this specific latitude right here in Nebra. |

Well, to the ancient people that used this device, it was a clock, a time telling device. They would use it to let them know autumn was here by an alignment of the disk in the sky with the sun... The star sysytem on the disk is Pleiades. |
