It is common to find identical ideograms in different parts of the world that, according to today's prevailing theories, have had no earlier connections with one another. Such is the case with this sign, found both in pre-Columbian Central America (in Aztec symbols representing the world), on sword-hilts from the Bronze Age in the Nordic countries, and on the Phaistos disco. This is a small disc made of burned clay, about 15 centimeters in diameter, with an ideographic script running in a spiral. There are about 120 signs in some 30 groups on each side. It was found at the excavations of a prehistoric town on Crete. It is approximately 4,000 years old.
