Commentary: The Mayan civilization was one of stunning achievements in the area of astronomy and their prediction of a monumental celestial event coincided with the ending of their, “long calendar,” in the year 2012. These facts have erroneously contributed to a Mayan prediction that the world would end in the year 2012. But, in fact, the Mayans did not make such a prediction.
For whatever reason, when their calculations reached the year 2012 they decided to call it quits and simply packed-up their long calendar. Similarly, there are no blog entries on this web site for the year 2012, leading some to speculate that I was in cahoots with the Mayans.
To date, the Mayans have not been reached for comment.
