[ send me this essay ]
This 11 page report discusses the ancient civilization
of the Aztecs and their remarkable “Sun Stone” or calendar. In
the Aztec system there are actually two Aztec calendars that are
essentially independent of one another. However, both are on the
“Sun Stone.” They reflect two different aspects of time which
represent the two most important aspects of Aztec life --
agriculture and spirituality. One of the calendars marks 365
days and is called the xiuhpohualli. It describes the days and
rituals that are connected with the different seasons, and is
generally thought of as the agricultural or solar year calendar.
The other calendar consists of only 260 days. In the language of
the Aztecs (Nahuatl), it is called the tonalpohualli simply
meaning the “day-count.” Bibliography lists 8 sources.
