More model information- Inside the circles at the bottom, there is a symbol of a hatchet, which symbolizes the Earth in astronomy even nowadays. Around this hatchet, one can see two circles. Presumably, one stands for the sphere of water and the other one for the atmosphere, surrounding the Earth. The Sun is above them all.
- Much like many other ancient models of the Solar system, this one is also geocentric. However, notable that thousand years BC ancient people, living on the territory of Armenia, depicted the Earth as a circle, not flat. Between the Earth and the Sun, they placed Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the Moon. All these celestial bodies are visible to the naked eye.
- This artifact and all astronomical petroglyphs, prove that ancient inhabitants of Armenia had quite broad and truthful knowledge about the Earth, the Moon, and the Universe.
