When it was widely believed that the Earth was flat, what was the opinion of what happened to the sun and moon when rising/setting?

So yeah as the title says, what was the accepted explanation with what happened to the sun at night and the moon in the morning? Was there something that was considered to be below the Earth where the Sun and Moon went or something else, am genuinely intrigued as to what the wide opinion was on this subject.
