The Maya Indians' sacred year covering 260 days perhaps should be interpreted as 13 * 20? The idea of having periods with 13 days - as for instance in Small Santiago Tablet - combined with the number 20 (which is the sum of fingers and toes) should result in something. And there is a kind of logic with 13 days instead of 14, because evidently the double-moon period is constructed as 29 + 30 = 59. Periods should have an odd extra day or night. This logic leads to considering alternating odd and even periods, e.g. 29 / 30, 13 / 14 or - beginning with an even number: 6 / 7, 30 / 31. Perhaps we can see this kind of thinking in the spines of the pair of creatures in Monday. And in the 3rd glyph below from the moon calendar. And in the 4th glyph below from the solar calendar.
