Of the Mayan Calendar
Posted: 22 Aug 2008 06:33
I found these a while ago, but have not thought to put them on here yet.
I am sure most of you have already discovered this, but I feel I should provide it for those who have not.
This is a table of the Mayan Long Count Calendar:
Table of Long Count units
Days Long Count period Long Count period Approx solar years
1 = 1 K'in
20 = 20 K'in = 1 Winal 1/18th
360 = 18 Winal = 1 Tun 1
7,200 = 20 Tun = 1 K'atun 20
144,000 = 20 K'atun = 1 B'ak'tun 395
Now, hopefully, all of you should see the significance brought to us by these numbers. If not, I would be eager to explain.
Truth to you all.
