People living in ancient times defined time and direction to a large extent by observing the sun. However, the basic central concept in the time-society relationship has been the measurement of time. The concept of time has been one of the fields of interest of philosophy throughout history, as well as one of the important fields of mathematics and physics studies. The subject of time-space is one of the topics that have been discussed throughout history in the fields of belief, philosophy and science and that has various views in line with the understanding of the universe. Many forms of measurement have been developed to grasp time. Star Stone Object According to the Aztecs, all events affecting mankind were divided into four epochs and the "Sun". The Aztecs described their time as the newest of the five ages, considering it the "Fifth Solar Age". They believed that the previous four eras had ended by natural causes, such as the flood, or by catastrophes triggered by wars between the gods. The Starstone Object was inspired by the Tizoc stone, which was thought to represent the universe by the Aztec Empire, made of basalt and covered with rich reliefs. The depiction of the eight-point or eight-beam solar disk is applied to the object surface as a stylized star band border border representing the heavens. The original work is on display at the Mexican National Museum of Anthropology. All of the relief patterns on the Star Stone Object were decorated by hand using gold gilding and antiquated paints.
