The Maya's never predicted anything concrete about 2012. That may have something to do with our ill knowledge about Maya culture: when the Spanish ransacked the land, they burnt literally every Maya book they could find. Only a handful of scriptures survived. And in them, there's not a clue about what happens when the Maya calendar ends. |

William Burroughs was fascinated with the Mayans - it was one of his research "tools" which later sunk into his writings, esp. "The Wild Boys".

it sucks that almost all burroughs titles except junkie, naked lunch, ghost of chance in germany arent printed anymore, I had to pay a shitload of money for reading his older stuff and still got not all books of him. wild boys is one of them too. I wonder why he isnt that supported in germany at least germany is the country of thinkers and writers, oh hooo
edit: http://cgi.ebay.de/William-S-Burroug...p3286.c0.m 14 wonder how high this auction will go in germany... |

actually they did. so very concrete that they set it in stone. 12:00 12.21.12 begins the 13th Baktun (the last cycle of The Long Count) and marks the celestial reunion of the father (the sun) and mother of all creation (the darkened band at the center of the Milky Way is her vagina). at the very moment of solstice on this date, the sun will superocclude the galactic center directly above Chichen Itza. what happens after that is anybody's guess though...the Mayans believed it would change everything. then again, they also thought that Cortez was Quetzalcoatl returned triumphant. |

Of course they were the greatest astrologers and I'm not denying that will happen, but I mean the Mayans never wrote 'dudes after that, the world ends'. |

My dad mentioned this morning that he thinks that 2012 is just the end of the cycle, that the Mayans may have believed time was cyclical, had a regular cycle and the calendar could be read from the beginning again. My dad told me that our modern calendars cycle exactly 28 years. If you were to pull out a calendar from 1980, all of the days and moon cycles would be the same as a 2008 calendar.

the Mayans were dealing with astronomical cycles.
not predicting the end of the world. their calendar went to the end of their then- current cycle.
