Earliest Mayan Astronomical Calendar Unearthed in Guatemala Ruins. Published: 11:19 AM - 05-11-12 A HEAVENLY FIND: Faded bar-and-dot numerals on the wall of a structure in Guatemala, enhanced here by an overlaid illustration of the markings, were recently discovered by archaeologist William Saturno and his colleagues. The numbers relate to various astronomical phenomena, although their exact meaning is not yet known. An excavation of an archaeological site in Guatemala has uncovered Mayan astronomical records dating to the ninth century A.D. The tabulated numbers, which predate existing Mayan astronomical documents by several hundred years, chart the motion of the moon and also seem to relate to the orbits of Mars and Venus. (And good news: they do not predict the world will end this year-in fact, some of the numbers appear to refer to dates far in the future.)
The presence of lunar glyphs in one of the numerical tables raised the possibility that the table related to astronomy. Intriguingly, the tables also hint at planetary motions.
