Summary
DescriptionDavestar.jpg |
English: A circular metal disc with a six-pointed star symbol from the context of the Star of David.
The circular nature of the disc may represent the sun, and the 6 points may represent rays of the sun. Scholars lean towards assigning the disc to Tengri shamanism due to the fact that there are also known examples of Khazarian sun discs with 5 or 7 points, rather than consistently 6. Some of the Jewish graves at Chelarevo in what used to be Hungary contain engravings of the "Star of David" and are believed to belong to Jewish migrants.
Русский: Два таких металлических диска (зеркала) были найдены на территории бывшего Хазарского каганата на Дону и Северском Донце. IX-X вв. Эрмитаж. Изображение на нем можно трактовать как языческий или шаманский знак, но с большей вероятностью это "Звезда Давида" — символ иудаизма. |
