History

The famous Mayan calendar system is the result of an ingenious solution that only a few civilizations have managed to achieve – harmonizing the cycles of the Sun, Moon and Venus.

Thanks to the invented system, this calendar acquired cycles of a completely different order and length, thus synchronizing the ritual with the rhythm not of a separate celestial body, but of the entire Solar System.
