His different advances have been; Mayan calendar: the sacred calendar the calendar wheel of 52 years the long count of 5200 years the lunar count of 18 lunar months the Venus count of 584 days or kin the count of the lords of the night of 9 days and others.

Astronomy: The Mayans had their own solar calendar and knew the periodicity of eclipses. They inscribed on stone monuments formulas to predict solar eclipses and the heliacal rise of Venus.

Archictecture: Gigantic limestone structures covered in stucco were its hallmark. The buildings were adorned with masks and crests carved in stone and stucco and generally painted red, due to the large amount of limestone available in the Mayan lands of the Petén; the lime and mixture was easily produced allowing the construction of impressive pyramids and palaces, generally the pyramids in the pre-classic period were crowned with three wooden temples and thatched roof, known as "Triadic Complexes"; during the classic they had one or two rooms with the characteristic Mayan vault.

Astrology: there are 20 daily signs, each month corresponds to an animal: Crocodile (Imix), Wind (Ik), House (Akba), Lizard (Kan), Snake (Chiccan), Death (Cimi), Deer (Manik), Rabbit (Lamat), Water (Muluc), Dog (Oc), Monkey (Chuen), Grass (Eb), Reed (Ben), Jaguar (Ix), Eagle (Men), Vulture (Cib)

For the Mayans, the Nawales were considered very important for the Mayan culture since they represented the outside, Attitude and elements of Nature, each Mayan had one.

Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.
Dmitrij [34]

Naïve citizens allow corrupt governments.

In literature, <u>situational irony</u> creates a contrast between what the readers might expect and what actually happens in the text. The goal is to shed light on the difference between appearances and the reality, with regard to a particular theme.

Here, the irony is that even though the farm produces more and gains more money, the animals who worked for this progress to happen are not getting the profits of this improvement. All the money goes to the hands of the ruling class (the pigs and the dogs), because the other animals are naïve enough to believe that the rulers' "supervision and organisation" work is enough to justify this unfair wealth distribution.
