Calendars Mayan Calendar The calendar works on the premise of several interweaving
cycles conjunction at one point. One being a cycle of 5,002 years. A Long count 52 year cycles. The 52-year cycle based on a moons cycle tracking thought a 52-year
pattern. A 360 day with 5 days added And the short count which is a 13-day month and 260-day
count for the 20 months. Days, tracked with two oscillating wheels one with thirteen
slots/ one though 13 with a two day cycle (( Dec. 23 2012 )) 1750 years ago The karma 250 ad These cycles are calculated by counting on disk with the
days one of 260 days representing the intermeshing of a
sequence of numbers 1 - 13 with 20 named
days among the Maya the 260 day count (sometimes called by the Ersatz term
tzolkin) began with 1 Imax following 2 Ink 3 Akbal, 4 Kan, until 13 had been
reached the day following was IX with the coefficient 1 again leading to 2
men and so on the last day being 13 ahau repeating again commencing with 1
Imax beginning with 1 imax follow 2 ik 3 akbal 4 kan, until 13 benthe day following is ix with
the coefficient 1 again. Months of the year Pop, Uo Zip, Zotz, Tzec, Xuc Yaxkin, Mol, Chen, Yax, Zac, Cen,
Mac, Kankin, Muann, Pax, Kayab, Vumku,
Uayeb. Symbols for the months
in the 360 day cycle. The 260 count is vaguely our 365, but the 1/4 extra 20 kins 1 uinal
or 20 days 18 unils 1 tun
or 360 days 20 tuns 1 katun
or 7,200 days 20 katuns baktun
or 144,000 days The calendars are as I have stated in counts which I
understand it to be a not a count but actually great ages to the world we
life in and the last great count started August 13, 3114 bc Or in Mayan as 9,10,19,5,11 10 chuan 4 cumbu ( Would be alculated as ) 9 buktun 1,296,000 days 10 katuns 72,000 days 19 tuns 6,840 days 5 uinals 100 days 11 ksins 11 days Or The Mayan calendar matches the cycles of the universe in
its counting concepts it counts ands accommodates for the time weaving and
the quarter of a day our calendar
makes up for every 4 years with adding a day. |
