Introduction to Mayan Mathematics

Disclaimer: My personal opinion is that the modern understanding is still simple and the actual mathematics of the Mesoamerican cultures have further developments before full understanding

I was born and raised in Guatemala, the heart of the Maya people. Just wanted to point out the 0:03 mark you are showing a round Aztec or mexica calendar. Maya calendar is similar but not the same. The face in the center is the dead giveaway of a major difference between the two

Thank you! sorry for the mistake! The codices shown are all Mexica in origin, but it is unfortunate that I said Maya in the beginning as a wrong reference to the Mexica one. I appreciate it :]
