... ' role as a star' or luminous flower'. Figure 11 Streamers across the face of the ancient sun-god Figure 12 Neolithic rock art of stairway descending from the ancient sun god Planets in Ancient Lore At the turn of the century it was widely held that the most sacred traditions, telling of the Creation, Deluge, Golden Age, Dragon combat, etc. were nature' myths describing the stereotypical behaviour of the two primary celestial bodies, typically in allegorical or euhemeristic fashion [16].
