ʻO ka 'Nebra Sky Disk' kahi pakuhi hōkū prehistoric i hana ʻia ma Kelemania i ka makahiki 1600 BCE. Hōʻike ia i nā ʻano mea nui o ka lani (ka lā, ka mahina, a me nā hōkū). ʻO kekahi o nā hiʻohiʻona hoihoi loa e pili ana i nā aʻa gula ʻelua e holo i lalo i nā kihi o ka Disk.
Uhi kēlā me kēia arc i kahi kihi 82 °, e hōʻike pololei ana i nā kihi ma waena o nā kauwela kauwela a me nā hoʻoilo. A ʻo kahi hopena, ʻo ka diski lani ka relic hoʻoneʻe mua o ʻEulopa e hōʻike nei i nā pōʻaiapuni lā.
Malia paha ʻo ka hiʻohiʻona hoihoi loa kahi ʻōpuʻu o nā kiko ʻehiku ma ka piko o ka disk (ma waena o nā hōʻailona o ka lā a me ka mahina) i manaʻo ʻia e hōʻailona i ka hōkū ʻo Pleiades. ʻIke pinepine ʻia ka nui o nā hōkū ma Scandinavian petroglyphs, e hōʻike ana he hōʻailona nui ia i ka poʻe Kelemania.
ʻAʻohe o nā disk hōkū ʻē aʻe o ka disk e kūlike i nā hōkū o ka lani pō. Kuhi kēia i hoʻohana ʻole ʻia kēia mea ma ke ʻano he pakuhi hōkū, akā ma ke ʻano he hōʻailona hōʻailona o ke ao holoʻokoʻa. Hiki paha, no laila, hōʻike ʻia ka diski i kekahi ʻano o ka moʻolelo lani?
Ua ʻike ʻia ka Pleiades ka "hōkū o nā hōkū" ma Babulona, a ua manaʻo ʻia he ʻāpana nui o ka lani pō. Ua manaʻo ko ʻAigupita kahiko he hōʻike ia o ke akua wahine ʻo Neith, ka "lede akua o ka lani." ʻO nā Pleiades nā kaikamahine ʻehiku a nā Titans ma ka moʻolelo Helene (Atlas a me Pleione). Ma muli o ke ʻano o ka lana ʻana o nā hōkū a puni ka lani, ua hōʻailona ko lākou inoa i nā “holo moana.”
Ke ukali nei mai kēia poʻomanaʻo holo, aia kekahi hōʻailona moana ma ka pakuhi. Manaʻo kekahi mau kālaiʻike ʻo ke kolu o ka piʻo ma ka lalo o ka disk e hōʻike ana i ka moku lā, kahi hōʻailona mitological i ʻike pinepine ʻia i ka moʻomeheu ʻAigupita a me Norse.
ʻO Ra kahi akua Sun ma ʻAigupita Kahiko i ʻōlelo ʻia e holoholo a puni ka lani i kahi moku lā. I ke ao, ua holo kona moku ma ka lewa, e hāʻawi ana i ka malamalama i ka Honua. Ua hala ma lalo o ka lani i ke ahiahi, e hana ana i ka pouli, a hoʻi wale i ka lā aʻe. ʻO kēia hanana ka make a me ka hānau hou ʻana o ke akua lā.
ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona lani me kahi kalaunu hōkū e kū ana ma luna o ka moku i hiki ke ʻike ʻia ma kekahi mau kiʻi pōhaku Scandinavian (kālai ʻia i ka makahiki 1700 BCE). ʻAʻole like me ka Sun God, ka mea e ala aʻe a hoʻonohonoho i kēlā me kēia lā, ua pili kēia mea Scandinavian me ka Pleiades (ʻo ka hōkū i hōʻike ʻia i ka hema o ke kiʻi), ʻo ia ka mea e ala aʻe ana i ka Puna ʻo ka Autumn (kahi manawa no ka ʻohi ʻana).
Hoʻonā ke akua lā / cosmic me ke ola i ka lani i nā hiʻohiʻona kaʻao ʻelua, e lele hope loa ana ma ʻō aku o ka pae, e hōʻike ana i kahi ʻano o ka make lani.
E hōʻuluʻulu manaʻo: ʻO ka hōʻailona o ka lā i ka hema o ka palapala ʻāina hōkū e hōʻailona paha i ka puka ʻana a me ka napoo ʻana o ka lā, e hōʻike ana i ke pōʻaiapuni o ka pō a me ke ao. Piʻi hoʻi ka hōʻailona o ka mahina, a piʻi i luna o ka lani, akā no ka lōʻihi o ka manawa. Hoʻohana ʻia paha ka mahina e hōʻike i ka pōʻaiapuni o ka mahina.
Piʻi nā Pleiades a hoʻonoho i luna o ka pae. Ua hoʻohana ka poʻe Helene iā ia e hōʻailona i ka hōʻea ʻana o ka puna a me ka haʻalele ʻana o ka hāʻule (nā kau kau). Uhi nā pale gula ma ka papa o ka disk i kahi kihi 82-kekelē, e aniani ana i nā kauwela a me nā hoʻoilo o Kelemania (pōʻaiapili).
ʻO ka hope, aia ka moku cosmic, kahi hōʻailona o ke akua lani e noho aliʻi ana ma luna o nā pōʻaiapuni honua o ka palapala ʻāina. Ke nānā ʻia nā hōʻailona ma kēia mālamalama, ʻike ʻia ka hōkū hōkū e haʻi nei i ka moʻolelo o ka make a me ke ala hou ʻana, kahi i loaʻa i nā kaʻao honua he nui.
E ʻike i ka diski ma ke ʻano he map hōkū lawe lima he kikoʻī nō ia. ʻOi aku paha ia he proto-calender, i haku ʻia e nā kahuna e hoʻomaopopo i ko lākou wahi i ka makahiki lunar. Hiki iā lākou ke wānana i ka nui o ka waipuna i koe e ka pākuhi ʻana i nā Pleiades e kūʻē i nā aʻa gula o ka diski (ʻo ia ka mea e ʻike ai i ka pae.
Inā ʻo kēia ka hihia, ua paʻa ka Nebra Sky Disk e kekahi mea kūlana koʻikoʻi a he mea ia o ka mana nui, e kōkua ana i ka poʻe kahiko i ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana a me ka hoʻokele ʻana i nā mea huna o ke ao.
