sagenundlegenden:

Pliska Rosette. Proto-Bulgarian runic calendar, bronze, 8th-9th century A.D.

The outer circle probably represents the 5 known planets along with the sun and moon, the inner circle the days of the week. The center IYI rune represents the sun god Tangra. A clearer view of the runes can be seen on a reproduction here.
