The Aztec Sun Stone, also known as the Aztec Calendar Stone, is an extraordinary archaeological artifact from ancient Mesoamerica. Often referred to as the “Stone of the Sun” (Piedra del Sol in Spanish), this massive stone monolith was skillfully crafted by the Aztecs, the indigenous people of Mexico, specifically during the rule of Moctezuma II, the 6th Aztec monarch, from 1502 to 1520.

Design

On both the obverse and reverse of the Aztec Sun Stone Silver Stacker, you’ll find a faithful representation of the renowned Aztec artifact. The Aztec Sun Stone is rich in symbolism and iconography, with its various elements conveying the Aztec worldview and religious beliefs. For instance, at the center of the stone is the face of the sun god, Tonatiuh, sticking out his tongue. Tonatiuh was regarded as the fifth sun in the Aztec creation myth and was associated with the present era or the fifth world. The extended tongue represents the god’s thirst for human blood, which the Aztecs believed was necessary to ensure the sun’s continuous journey across the sky.

History

Surrounding the central face are two intertwined serpents, which represent Ehecatl, the god of wind. This motif signifies the cycle of time and the duality of existence, as well as the importance of wind in Aztec agricultural practices.
