Description
English: 'Surya Majapahit' or 'The Sun of Majapahit' is the emblem common found in temples and ruins dated from Majapahit era.

The sun disk is stylized with carved ray of light; surrounded by eight Lokapala gods, the eight en:Hindu gods that guarded eight cardinal points of the universe. There's other version of Majapahit's Sun, such as sun disc with sun god en:Surya riding a celestial horse or chariot, to just a simple sun disc with stylized ray of light.
