Student workshop:  Maya Calendars with Dr. Gabrielle Vail

$10, 4:00-5:30pm

 

The Maya developed complex calendars that allowed them to calculate billions of years into the past, as well as into the future.  This workshop introduces participants to the three most important of the Maya calendars—the ritual cycle of 260 days, the 365-day solar calendar, and the Long Count used to commemorate historical dates.  Participants will construct a Maya text with their birth date and their royal Maya name and titles.

 

Student Workshop, ages 8-11
