阿兹特克人的「五个太阳纪元」，刻在一块著名的巨石上——「太阳石」。它于1790年12月17日在墨西哥城中央广场修缮时出土，直径约3.6米，重约24吨，现藏墨西哥国家人类学博物馆。石头中心的面孔，一般认为是太阳神托纳蒂乌，也有学者认为是大地之神；围绕它的四个方框，代表此前分别毁于猛兽、狂风、火雨和洪水的四个纪元。

The Aztec idea of five suns is carved on a famous giant stone known as the Sun Stone. It was unearthed on 17 December 1790 during repairs in the main square of Mexico City. It is about 3.6 metres across, weighs about 24 tonnes, and is now kept in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. The face at its centre is usually identified as the sun god Tonatiuh, although some scholars think it is an earth deity. The four panels around it stand for the four earlier ages, ended in turn by wild beasts, fierce winds, a rain of fire and a great flood.
