The Mayan calendar has many divisions of time: months of 20 days, years of 360 days, katun of 7200 days and a baktun of 144,000 days. Their calendar started on 3114-AUG-13 BCE with the birth of Venus. They expected the world to last for exactly 13 baktun cycles. They anticipated the end of the world near the Winter Solstice of 2012. (3)


So if we go by that statement that their calendar lasts 13 baktun cycles then............................

144,000 x 13 = 1,872,000 days

-3114 + 2012 = 5,126 years

5,126 x 365 = 1,870,990 days

1,872,000 - 1,870,990 = 1,010 days left over

So the year 2012 + 1,010 days = equals about mid to end year 2015

Am I missing something here? Did I do my math wrong? Is the article wrong?

So is my math wrong, or are they wrong?
