13 The Calendar of the Maya: The Long Count * * * * days = 1,383,136 Days since August 3114 BCE The Long Count is the number of days that have elapsed since some event long ago (in 3114 BCE)
14 The Calendar of the Maya: The Calendar Round The Calendar Round is a combination of 260 day cycle (the Tzolkin) and a 365 day cycle (the Haab), which together make a cycle of 18,980 days (about 52 years)
15 Using the Mayan Calendar to Translate Mayan Texts In 1960, Tatiana Proskouriakoff found that in related collections of texts, there were four texts that always occurred in a fixed sequence. Drawings by J. Montgomery A Few Decades A Few Decades A Few Days
16 Using the Mayan Calendar to Translate Mayan Texts Using the dates of these events, she interpreted these as important events in one person s history. This proved Mayan texts contained historical information and was instrumental in the translation of these texts.
