Los mayas crearon dos calendarios y varias cronologías donde ubicaban todo acontecimiento, mítico o reciente. La comprensión del tiempo y su interpretación en el mundo maya nos revelan una cosmovisión que la Conquista y la Colonia no lograron borrar.

The Art of Maya Timekeeping. The Maya created two calendars and several timelines that charted every major event, whether mythical or historical. Their awareness of time and timekeeping acquaints us with their understanding of life. Indeed, in spite of the Spanish conquest and hundreds of years of colonial rule, their timekeeping methods proved impossible to eradicate.
