[Aztlan] INSTITUTE OF MAYA STUDIES LECTURE

[michael ruggeri]

November 28, 8:00-9:30 PM
Institute of Maya Studies Lecture
"Understanding 2012"
IMS Newsletter editor and Maya aficionado Jim Reed has created a  
totally new program to explain the Maya Long Count Calendar end date  
of December 21, 2012 that is straight forward and for the first time,  
in color (featuring real NASA photography). The program will be shown  
on the large Planetarium screen at the Miami Science Museum.
This is Reed¹s attempt to fill a vacuum in Maya Studies, a visual  
answer to the why and how of the end date of the 13-baktun cycle of  
the Maya Long Count. We are amazed at the sophistication and vision  
of the ancient New World astronomers, the descendants of whom still  
count the days and watch the skies in the remote outback of Guatemala.
