Re: Did the Maya Focus on This?
Thats a good questions. From what I've researched, the Mayans thought that a drastic event would end the world and life in 2012. I believe it was December 21th they said this event would occur. Basically, its a cataclysm which means "wash down" in Greek. They believed a big flood would come.
Thats why the calendar ends there because they thought life would end in 2012 so there is no point for them to continue onto 2013. Hope that helps.
