The Greek Vergina Sun

2000 BC: This is the time where ancient Greeks first started using the Sun symbol.
It was not standardized yet, it was a early form of the Sun of Vergina.

The circles inside the sun are found in some of the most primitive symbols of the sun. The sun with circles is often referred to as a "tribal sun".

I find the rings around the sun very interesting as well. Three distinctly different designs. It is beautiful!
