Re: German palisaded enclosure could be oldest observatory by Izozo on Friday, 03 January 2025

“The Sky Disc was discovered in 1999 on the Mittelberg hill near Nebra, Germany, by treasure hunters Henry Westphal and Mario Renner. Found alongside bronze swords, axes, a chisel, and spiral armbands, the artifact was sold to private dealers before being recovered in 2002 through a police sting operation. “

In other words there is no proof of the place where the disc was found. Would a treasure hunter tell his secret place of fortune????

There is no proof that the disk was found alongside the above mentioned objects that would serve the proof of the age of the disc. And because of it, nobody knows and nobody can determine its age.

If its age and place is unclear, why anybody would give importance to the position of the Pleiades in eastern Germany in March and October of 1600 BC???? Because of the 7 stars next to moon in the disc?! And what about the other 25 stars?? Altogether 32 stars. Guess what? 32 days must elapse from the new light of the month preceding the spring month until the moon stands next to the Pleiades. Exactly 32 stars are shown on the disk…. (If you change the numbers: 23: The number 23 film with Jim Carrey is nothing to this scientific calculation).

The center of the disc is just below the crossing point of the lines connecting the opposite ends of the two horizon arks. The upper angle is 5-6 degrees less than the lower angle. This discrepancy represents the difference that people had observed between sunrise and sunset. As simple as prehistoric Europe.

But: the ship on the horizon is the only element in the depiction of the heavens on the disc that the astronomers could not plausibly interpret. We can not explain this gold sheet as any celestial phenomenon. By its shape and decoration we can interpret it as a ship, as a mythical sky-boat. A mythical Nebra Sky Boat. Yes, we can. And here is the solution: one of the depictions of a ship in the grave of Sennefer, mayor of Thebes in Egypt. Its banana shape and plank construction recall the sky-ship on the Nebra disc. 15th century BC. So:
-Sennefer visited Nebra
-somebody from Nebra visited Sennefer
-they have met half way (if they did not travel with sky-ship). Ship ship hurray!

If you don’t like the ship story, go to Nebra Sky Museum’s planetarium. Here they will explain that the two curves on the disc are nothing else than the movement of the sun )(. If we position them correctly on the disk, they crossing point is Magdeburg (if I remember well the name of the city).



Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
