Research Abstract |
The most important element in Maya’s worldview are Mayan calendars, especially the sacred calendar, and their thought of time. The Mayan thought of time consists in its essence “Nahaul”, and for the Maya time means fire of life, energy, wisdom, cycles, and history. By time the world and life are created and renewed, and continue existing and developing.
