Mayan Doomsday Date May Be Wrong
| (CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) - For those of you who have prepared for
the end of the world on December 21, 2012, your preparations may
have been just a tad bit off, according to new research out that
says the date on the Mayan calendar may not be as correct as many
scholars had earlier believed. Live Science reported that according to new research done by Gerardo Aldana, associate professor of Chicana and Chicano Studies at UC Santa Barbara, the date may actually be off by over a year. This is likely the result of a mistake from when there was a conversion from Mayan dates to modern ones. The current date predicted for the end of the world is a week from next Tuesday. (91 percent probability). We apologize for the inconvenience. |
