But numbers should be used with caution.
And the Mayas had another year for their beginning:
.
.. This pot
depicts one of the Hero Twins (One-Ahaw in the Classic
texts and One-Hunaphu in the K'iche' Popol Vuh) and a
great bird who is trying to land in a huge ceiba tree
heavy with fruit. This mythical bird is Itzam-Yeh,
Classic prototype of Wuqub-Kaqix, 'Seven-Macaw',
of Popol Vuh fame. In that story, in the time before the
sky was lifted up to make room for the light, the
vainglorious Seven-Macaw imagined himself to be the sun.
Offended by his pride, the Hero Twins humbled him by
breaking his beautiful shining tooth with a pellet from
their blowgun. This pot shows One-Ahaw aiming at the
bird as he swoops down to land in his tree. As
Itzam-Yeh lands on his perch, the text tells us he
is 'entering or becoming the sky'.
This
particular 'sky-entering' is not the one mentioned in
the Palenque text. It is the final event that occurred
in the previous creation
before
the universe was remade. Before the sky could be raised
and the real sun revealed in all its splendor, the Hero
Twins had to put the false sun, Itzam-Yeh, in his
place. If the date on this pot corresponds to that
pre-Columbian event, as we believe it does, then
Itzam-Yeh was defeated on 12.18.4.5.0 1 Ahaw
3 K'ank'in (May 28, 3149 B.C.). After the new
universe was finally brought into existence, First
Father also entered the sky by landing in the tree, just
as Itzam-Yeh did ...
... In three
magnificent texts at the site of Koba, scribes recorded
it as one of the largest finite numbers we humans have
ever written. According to these inscriptions, our world
was created on the day 4 Ahaw 8 Kumk'u. On this
day all the cycles of the Maya calendar above twenty
years were set at thirteen - that is to say, the cycles
of 400 years, 8,000 years, 160,000 years, 32,000,000
years, and so on, all the way up to a cycle number
extending to twenty places (2021 * 1360-day
year).
In our
calendar, this day fell on August 13, B.C. 3114 (or
September 20, -3113 in the Julian calendar). To
understand what this means, we need a little scale.
The thirteens in this huge number act like the
twelve in our cycles - the next hour after twelve is
one. Thirteen changed to one as each of these cycles
in the Maya calendar was completed, therefore, we
have the following sequence:

Each of the
years, called a tun by the Maya, in these
dates is composed of 360 days. If we return
to the Creation date with its twenty cycles set at
thirteen, we see that it will take
41,943,040,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000 tuns
for the highest cycle to change from thirteen to one
...
3114 + 2012 = 5126 =
11 * 466.
The Mayan date for November 15, 2720 BC
could possibly correspond to the position of Gb1-10 and to the time when
the Sun reached the season where the Eagle ended:

For their older date, August 14,
3114 BC, we should try to go (3114 - 2720) /
71 = ca 5 glyphs ahead in the rongorongo
text compared to AUGUST 14, and this could have been where the Sun was thought of to have reached Arcturus:
... The
Sun-god thence climbed up the mother-mountain of the
Kushika race as the constellation Hercules, who is
depicted in the old traditional pictorial astronomy
as climbing painfully up the hill to reach the
constellation of the Tortoise, now called Lyra, and
thus attain the polar star Vega, which was the polar
star from 10000 to 8000 BC ...

And for their final date December 23,
AD 2012, we could position ourselves (2012 - 1842) /
71 = ca 2 glyphs earlier than at December 23. This was
when Menkar (α Ceti) culminated at midnight and when
the Full Moon reached the Left Foot of Castor
(outside 'the male square'):
... On
one side there was the limited, the odd, the one,
the right, the male, the good, motion, light, square
and straight. On the other side there was the
unlimited, the even, the many, the left, the female,

It has been stated, although I cannot for
the moment recall where, that Itzam-Yeh was
Ursa Major. This seems reasonable, because once upon
a time Ursa Major had been closer to the north pole
than today:
The Mayan date
May 28
in the year 3149 BC was not mentioned in the Koba text
and it could therefore have referred to the time when Aldebaran rose with the Sun
in MARCH 25 (possible to write as 3-25 in order to
allude to 26000 / 8). Indeed I immediately associated to
Aldebaran at May 28 when I saw this ancient date for the
first time:

Aldebaran was a
fundamental and well known part of the current
creation, but it was no longer at the northern
spring equinox, no longer at the cardinal point.

Itzam-Yeh who no longer was at the top of

For
the Maori the past is an important and pervasive
dimension of the present and future. Often
referred to as the 'ever-present now', Maori
social reality is perceived as though looking
back in time from the past to the present.

Maori word for 'the front of' is mua and
this is used as a term to describe the past,
that is, Nga wa o mua or the time in
front of us. Likewise, the word for the back is
muri which is a term that is used for the
future. Thus the past is in front of us, it is
known; the future is behind us, unknown. The
point of this is that our ancestors always had
their backs to the future with their eyes firmly
on the past
