Sunstone Object
According to the Aztecs, all events affecting human beings were divided into four epochs and the "Sun".
The Aztecs described their time as the newest of the five ages, considering it the "Fifth Solar Age".
They believed that the previous four eras had ended by natural causes, such as the flood, or by catastrophes triggered by wars between the gods.
The symbols surrounding the middle panel of the Great Aztec Calendar Stone and the depiction in its center have been the subject of many studies.
The first ring in the interior depicts the twenty signs corresponding to the twenty days of the Aztec month.
The four panels surrounding the middle face are considered to be glyphs representing the past four ages and the "water, wind, earthquakes-storms and jaguar" disasters that ended these ages.
The Sunstone Object was inspired by the motifs on the Aztec Calendar Stone, unearthed during excavations in Mexico in 1790.
The face of Aztec Sun God Tonaiuthun is depicted in the middle of the stone, which is exhibited in the National Anthropology Museum of Mexico today.
All of the relief patterns on the Sunstone Object are decorated by hand using gold gilding and antiquated paints.
