ANCIENT instructions are hinted at in the BOOK OF GENESIS. And it is believed that one of the functions of the NEBRA DISC, the world's oldest astrological device discovered to date, may be to enable us to understand the following: And GOD said: Let there be LIGHTS in the expanse of the SKY to separate the DAY from the NIGHT, and let them serve as SIGNS to mark SEASONS, DAYS and YEARS (GENESIS 1,14)
Reading ANCIENT TEXTS such as the BOOK OF GENESIS we must take care, sitting here in the 21st century with our supposed advanced knowledge, not to be cynical or pedantic. We must look at such texts not through modern eyes or the eyes of the ones who transcribed them but we must go back further in time and imagine that we can hear the MESSAGE spoken in the days before it was promulgated around the world and came to be written down.
The scientific part of the PENTATEUCH, in other words that part of GENESIS relating to the CREATION and our place in the UNIVERSE (GENESIS 1,1 to 2,3), may not have its origins in the Middle East. For the source we will need to go much further back in time, to a time long before 2100 BC when GOD revealed himself to ABRAHAM at UR. And we will need to move elsewhere.
THE NEBRA DISC was unearthed along with other items in the SAXEN-ANHALT region of GERMANY. In 2009 it was discovered from analysis of more than 300 European sites that the GOLD used to make the 3,600 year old disc was from the RIVER CARNON area in CORNWALL. In fact, the other metals used in its manufacture also came from CORNWALL. It is therefore probable that the disc was made in CORNWALL. But it was designed for use at a specific location in SAXEN-ANHALT.
