Aztec Calendar earrings small

The Aztec civilization used two calendars - a solar calendar, which described the seasons and regulated agricultural work, and a divination calendar, based on which events in the life of a newborn member of the community were prophesied.

This is the fortune-telling calendar, or more precisely, the so-called The Sun Stone, on the basis of which it was deciphered, is the subject of these spectacular earrings.

If you look closely at these golden discs, you will easily see the division of the shield into eras: jaguar, wind, rain and water, and perhaps after a deeper study of the symbols you will be able to read your own fate carved in stone in the 15th century.
