The Maya developed one of the most sophisticated calendar systems in history. The Tzolkin combines 20 Day Signs with 13 Tones to produce 260 unique Kin. The Haab interweaves with the Tzolkin in a 52-year Calendar Round. The Long Count tracks vast cycles, the last grand cycle ending December 21, 2012. Birth Kin, Trecena Tone, and Lord of the Night reveal cosmic mission, challenge, and hidden power.
