The Mayan calendar is not a single calendar, but a series of calendars.
The Long Count calendar is a linear calendar.
The Maya also employ two cyclical calendars. The Maya intermesh a solar exoteric calendar 'Haab', with a sacred exoteric calendar 'Tzolkin'. The solar calendar, used for practical and agricultural purposes, consists of 365.242129 days, and is actually MORE PRECISE than our current Gregorian Calendar at 365.242500 days.
is it true that the world is going to end on dec. 2012?
