‘So far, Kinix has hidden his true meaning by writing in Latin. Why would this be any different?’ concluded Adam. ‘True. In Mayan, the number thirteen comes in a few different forms. The Mayan calendar, better known as the Calendar Round, was made up of three smaller circles entwined with cogs like intermeshing gears. These calendars combined allowed them to accurately name 1 872 000 days starting from the year 3113 BC. The first calendar of the circle is called the “tzolk’in” and is a sacred calendar cycling 260 days. The second is the 365 day “haab”, based on the cycles of the earth and the third is called the “tun-uc”. This one is the moon calendar and mirrors a woman’s ‘moon’ or monthly cycle. The number thirteen can mean thirteen days or years after 3113 BC. It could be the number system which is two lines each with the value of five and three dots on the top of that to make thirteen. It could be the thirteenth month of the haab which is called the ‘Ben’.
