The Mayans lived on the earth, but why didn't they use the time of the earth?

The Mayans just didn't spend the same time as us. That doesn't mean they don't have time to use the earth, okay? Maya civilization, how developed at that time, now don't speculate from some angles, don't over-interpret the strict laws created by Maya.

Maya made calendars through celestial movements.

There is no difference with other ancient civilizations at this point, so what do you mean by saying that the Mayans didn't use earth time? It just means that the last year handed down now is 365 days, and a year is only 12 months. If the time used by Maya has been handed down, would you still say that he didn't use earth time? Some people even speculate that the time they spent was on a planet outside the solar system. Even if the Mayan civilization was developed at that time, it was impossible to build a spaceship and fly directly to other galaxies.

At that time, the Mayans lived in an era when their astronomy was particularly developed, although there was no advanced science and technology. At that time, they knew that the time for the earth to orbit the sun was 365.242 days, and they came to the conclusion that it was only ten seconds away from the current solar year, and the Mayans also knew the period of the moon's revolution and the period of careful rendezvous. This is enough to prove how developed Mayan astronomy was at that time, but no one knows how the Mayans came to this conclusion.

The origin of Mayan calendar

The Mayan calendar consists of three parts, namely the divine calendar, the solar calendar and the long calendar. A year of divine power is not 360 days now, but 260 days. It consists of 20 days and 13 days, which is somewhat similar to the present heavenly stems and earthly branches combination in China. This legislation was applied to the worship and divination of the Mayans. At that time, the Mayans used the decimal system, and the number 13 was sacred in Mayan civilization, so there was a god calendar composed of 20 days names and 13 days.

Therefore, the Mayans did not set the time at will. Of course, he knows the exact time of the solar year, but he divides the year into 19 months. Because the Mayans used to use the decimal system, the Mayan time was 20 days a month. Although1September is only more than five days, they are willing, so we don't have to speculate too much here.

Besides the solar calendar and the solar calendar, the Mayans also used long calendars. This legislation is different from the other two, and the time span is very large. This legislation originated in more than 3000 BC, and I don't know much about it. There is no way to study. But in any case, the Mayan calendar is definitely not what people call an alien calendar. It is just a unique calendar made by the Mayans according to the forbidden calendar system of their own civilization and the observed celestial movement.
