The only ancient prophetic mention of Dec 21, 2012 we do have is a single monument at Tortuguero, which says that “The Thirteenth Bak’tun” will be finished (on) Four Ahaw, the Third of K’ank’in. ? will occur. (It will be) the descent(?) of the Nine Support (?) God(s) to the ?.”<\/em><\/p>\n The question marks denote glyphs that cannot be read or translated, and the rest of the prophecy has been broken off and not yet located. Other translations do exist, and the meanings assigned to them vary widely. So far no academic research has assigned a catastrophic meaning to the inscription.<\/p>\n Scientists:<\/strong> I have been studying 2012 for 11 years, and have not come across an accredited academic researcher who has claimed an \u201cend of the world\u201d scenario for the end of the Long Count calendar. Most scientists categorically state that there is no evidence to support such fears.<\/p>\n Doomsdayers and Survivalists:<\/strong> Those seeking confirmation of the apocalyptic fears can readily find proof via implication. Although 2012ers generally speak of the Mayan<\/em> Long Count calendar, it is widely accepted that they inherited their calendar from the Olmecs, as did the Aztecs. In fact the most famous 2012 image is actually the Aztec Sun Stone Calendar:<\/p>\n While no doomsday information from the Mayans has been found regarding the end of the current Long Count calendar, the Aztecs were quite clear on what they believe happened at the end of their previous<\/em> Long Count calendars, aka Suns or Worlds.<\/p>\n An ancient Aztec document, the Vaticano-Latin Codex<\/em>, describes the previous worlds:<\/p>\n “First Sun, ‘Matlactli Atl’: duration 4,008 years. Those who lived then ate water maize called ‘atzitzintli’. In this age lived the giants… The First Sun was destroyed by water in the sign ‘Matlactli Atl’ (Ten Water). It was called ‘Apachiohualiztli'(flood, deluge), the art of sorcery of the permanent rain. Men were turned into fish. Some say that only one couple escaped, protected by an old tree living near the water. Others say that there were seven couples who hid in a cave until the flood was over and the waters had gone down. They repopulated the Earth and were worshipped as gods in their nations…<\/p>\n Second Sun, ‘Ehecoatl’: duration 4,010 years. Those who lived then ate wild fruit known as ‘acotzintli’. This Sun was destroyed by Ehecoatl (Winged Serpent) and men were turned into monkeys… One man and one woman, standing on a rock, were saved from destruction…<\/p>\n Third Sun, ‘Tleyquiyahuillo’: duration 4,081 years. Men, the descendents of the couple who were saved from the Second Sun, ate a fruit called ‘tzincoacoc’. This Third Sun was destroyed by fire…<\/p>\n Fourth Sun, Tzontlilic: duration 5,026 years. Men died of starvation after a deluge of blood and fire…”<\/p>\n Mayan scholars tend not to mention this information, because it is Aztec, and they study the Maya. Both cultures had 5,000 year calendars, inherited from the Olmecs. Both cultures believe that we are in the 5th<\/sup> world (although some say we are in the 4th<\/sup> Mayan world). Both cultures believed that humans and human prototypes were destroyed by natural disasters, instigated by the gods, at the end of the previous Long Count calendars. The Aztecs believed that our current world would be destroyed by earthquakes. The Mayans believed that our current world ends in 2012. The implication is not one of joyous renewal, or of the turning of a calendar page. It is obvious that the Mayans expected the very worst in 2012.<\/p>\n More information here: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/survive2012.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/aztec_sun_stone.gif\" "\\"aztec_sun_stone\\"")
