The
Maya Calendar 2004 - 05
by The Maya World Studies Center (Centro
de Estudios del Mundo Maya) is a Maya - English calendar that
covers 13 months, i.e. from January to December 04 and January
2005. Our Maya Calendar is composed of two sections which
can be separated; therefore it is planned so it will be useful
to you beyond these 13 months.
The
first section presents information about the Maya
Calendar that does not change from year to year and
can be saved for future reference. This section is actually
a card which measures 11 by 11 inches (28 by 28 centimeters)
and is color printed on heavy, quality stock. The front cover
presents a drawing of the Maya Calendar and is a synthesis
of all its elements. This card folds open to show 2 printed
pages inside that give general information about the calendar,
its glyphs and numbers, the time periods, the Tzolkin and
Haab calendars, and the Calendar Round and also explains how
the calendar works. The back cover has the traditional Song
to the Sun in several languages.
The
second section is made of the pages (11’ by 11’)
for the 12 months of the Gregorian calendar widely used today,
plus January of 2005. In these pages the day cells contain,
in addition to the usual information, the Maya glyphs
and numerals expressing the corresponding Tzolk'in
and Haab Maya Calendar dates, graphics
of the Moon's phases, the beginning of the seasons, listings
of solar and lunar eclipses, plus the start date of the Maya
year that takes place within 2004.
The
Maya World Studies Center asks for a contribution
to send you this fine and useful hanging calendar that is
also a unique and exceptional gift.
