| Kalender Maya Periode Awal Tidak Ramalkan Kiamat |
| Written by News desk - inilah.com | |
Washington - Kalendar Maya pada periode awal ternyata tidak meramalkan terjadinya kiamat. Benarkah? Seperti dikutip dari NationalPost, kalender periode awal suku Maya yang ditemukan di sebuah rumah kuno di Guatemala tidak menunjukkan ramalan kiamat, ungkap para peneliti.
"Rumah yang berada di komplek kuno Xultun tersebut, di temboknya banyak cerita dipaparkan melalui tulisan dan lukisan," tulis jurnal Science.
Sejumlah tulisan di tembok tersebut berasal dari abad kesembilan; membuatnya ratusan tahun lebih tua dari kalender di Maya Cocides, yang tercatat ditulis pada tahun 1300 hingga 1521.
"Beberapa kalender tersebut ditulis untuk kurun waktu 365 hari, siklus 584 hari planet Venus dan 780 hari siklus Mars," ujar arkeolog William Saturno of Boston University, yang memimpin penelitian dan penggalian tersebut. [mor]
