Avebury Stone #10 Left Side Compared to the Neo-Assyrian Nubian Tribute Bearer Now in Gallery 400 of the Metropolitan Museum in New York City, Fifth Avenue, NY.
The left side of Avebury Megalith #10 marks the stars of Cancer ca. 3000-2500 B.C. There is no doubt that the so-called Neo-Assyrian Nubian Tribute Sclupture, correctly dated by the mainstream archaeologists to ca. 800 B.C., shows essentially the same motif as the left side of Avebury Megalith #10 ca. 2000 years earlier.
The two similar motifs are separated by ca. 2000 years. There must be similar motifs somewhere from the intervening period! The head of the man in both cases is marked by stars of Ursa Major to the left of the stars of Ursa Major that mark the heads on the front side of Avebury Stone #10, while the body is marked by stars of Cancer. The animal skin marks Leo as a leopard in the Statuette while it is unclear which animal skin is portrayed in approximately the same position 2000 year earlier -- the animal had a very large head. The monkey portrayals at Lynx are very different in style, but both clearly are monkeys. Hydra is marked on the Statuette by the Uraei, the fire-spitting serpents that marked the Celestial Equator. A serpent could be said to be found also on Avebury Stone #10 on the left side (in the middle of the stone), but that appeared uncertain. The Avebury stone has what appears to be a deer toward the bottom while on the Statuette an oryx marks Gemini with its head while the legs of the oryx mark the "strands" of the Milky Way below. The position of the Summer Solstice has moved beyond the head of Leo on the Statuette, where the upper belt buckle marks the Ecliptic and the lower belt buckle the Celestial Equator. More individual details are possible to identify, but we do not want to push our luck in terms of chancy identifications. The basic picture is clear.
The Heifetz Planisphere shows the Milky Way as seen by the naked eye observer and that is why we use it to show the star positions for the Summer Solstice ca. 800 B.C. as found marked on the Neo-Assyrian So-Called Nubian Tribute Sculpture (our discovery). We say "so-called" Nubian because it was the high priest in Pharaonic Egypt who wore the leopard skin as a symbol of his position.
The sky represented by the so-called tribute bearer (our discovery) is shown in the second image in this posting, which is below the first decipherment image (also our discovery).
The second image here shows our reworked clip of the star positions on the Heifetz Precession of the Equinoxes Historical Planisphere (1997) from www.starlab.com, which we often use as an additional source to our astronomy software. We use it here to show the "naked eye" star positions and the "extended" Milky Way for the Summer Solstice point in the stars at Cancer ca. 800 B.C. as found on the statuette. To our initial surprise, that date meshes exactly with the date assigned to the Statuette by archaeology. We have added the red lines to show how they match the Statuette.
