mayan essay

i have to make an essay about the maya’s. i’ve chosen 3 subjects: the temples, the calendar and common background information, so if annyone could help me, thanks :razz:

Wikipedia to the rescue!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayas

Just follow the links in the article if that’s not enough information.

Lol, just follow the dreamspell links on this site for the calendar =D

i have info on the calendar allready:P it’s just the rest :sad:, like, untill when did they live, how did they build what they did etc etc:(
well, it’s done now so you might as well lock this

One thing that’s worth mentioning about the mayan calendar - is the need to recognise that the dreamspell is a modern interpretation of the mathematical codes / calendar of the maya. It is not the same as the traditional mayan calendar. For this reason, I would recommend checking out sites like Saq Be - the organisation for Mayan and Indigenous Spiritual Studies.

But anyway. It seems you completed the essay. I would enjoy having a read if you get the chance.

i know the current Tzolk’in is different from the original one and that there is another calendar called the (longer) haäb calendar, i’ve added a bit of that into the essay too
