Description

Welcome to the zodiac signs of Maya. Artifacts left behind by the rooted Maya civilization, which lived its golden age in the 1st millennium AD, can be seen all over today's Central America. The Mayan writing system consisted of symbols, called glyphs, that corresponded to words and sounds. This writing system soon found its way into buildings, stelae, architectural works, and books called "codex".The Mayan calendar was a complex system. Professor Weldon Lamb of New Mexico State University, in his book "The Mayan Calendar: The Book of Months," states that "1,700 years ago, speakers of the Pre-Ch'olan language, the ancestor of the three Mayan languages ​​still spoken today, consisted of 18 months of 20 days and an additional 5 days. They developed a calendar.” he states. I will describe these 20 zodiac signs with portraits for you.
