7:00 p.m.–8:00 p.m. | Pratt Auditorium The Maya Civilization was without a doubt the most developed of the pre-Columbian Americas. It flourished for centuries in southern México, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras and El Salvador. They are known for a fully developed written language, an intricate calendric system, beautiful art, and sophisticated architecture. They were one of only two civilizations in the world to develop and use the concept of zero.
Much attention has been given to and many theories abound about Maya prophecies surrounding the end of the world in 2012. In this talk we will present some of the history, theory and current understanding of the Maya Long Count Calendar, the Maya number system, and Maya Cosmo vision. The Long Count is set to complete 13 Bak'tuns in December 2012. We will examine what the Maya may have really believed was to happen on this ominous date, as well as what all the hype about world destruction reveals about our own culture. |
