If
you include people who are worried that the world will end this year
based on the Mayan calendar, was calm: End of life in the world is still
far away, too!
At least that's what is said by some experts on the Maya. They want to dismiss any belief that the ancient Mayans never predicted the world would end in 2012.
Mayan calendar marks the end of the circle of the year 5126 is approximately December 12, 2012, which should bring back the Mayan god Bolon Yokte relating to war and creation.
Author Jose Arguelles calls on it as "the end of what we know" in the book that spawned the 1987 edition deck theorists about the Maya, who speculated about the end of a full disaster is imminent.
However, a meeting of experts on the ancient Mayan city in southern Mexico, Palenque, saying it merely marks the end of the period of creation and the beginning of another creation, according to Reuters reporter Pepe Cortes.
"We must be clear about this. There is no forecast for 2012," said Erik Velsquez, an "etching" at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). "Etching" is the act or process of making designs or pictures on metal plates, glass, etc., by using a corrosive acid from the acid. "It was a marketing mistake."
National Institute of Anthropological History in Mexico has tried to dampen the wave predictions by the experts predicted the apocalypse.
"The idea of the messiah has been perverted Western world view of ancient civilizations like the Maya," the agency said in a statement.
In the Mayan calendar, long count calendar begins in 3114 BC and divided the average period of 394 years of so-called Baktun. The Maya considered it sacred and lift 13-13 Baktun to expire next year (2012).
The Maya are a group of tribes who lived in the peninsula of Yucatan, Central America, bordering the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Caribbean Sea to the east.
The tribe, which in the stone age to achieve greatness in the field of technology (250 AD to 925 AD), resulting in a unique form of work such as building and civilization (Chichen Itza), agriculture (drainage canals), maize and latex, the well, called "cenotes" .
The way they communicate and document writing: writing is using images and symbols, called "glyphs". There are two kinds of glyphs: featuring the complete picture of the object intended, and which describes the types of things according to the tribe said.
For example, the word "Balam: jaguar", depicted with the head of the animal, or with three syllables "ba" - "la" - "ma", which consists of three images similar daratas bowl / shell.
Sven Grönemeyer, a researcher on the codes in the Maya of La Trobe University in Australia, said the so-called end of the world reflects the transition from one era to the next close, when Bolon Yokte back. He has tried to read the password in the calendar.
"Because Bolon Yokte already hadi on the day of creation ... it seems natural for the Mayan Bolon Yokte that will be present again," he said.
From an average of 15 000 registered glyphs and text found in different parts of what was a Mayan empire, only two mentions of 2012, said it's Intitute.
"The Maya did not think about humanity, global warming or predict the two poles will come together," said Alfonso Ladena, professor of the Complutense University of Madrid. "We are projecting our fears is to make them as a foundation."
However, regardless of whether or not Maya predicted this, is not it is worth us to believe a prophecy in modern times.
Most forecasts that there was a hypnotist who will direct our thoughts to what was predicted, so that what we experienced on the forecast lead us to believe.
