Carving from the Aztec period of dedicated to the fifth sun, the era that the Aztecs believed they lived in according to the Aztec calender. The calendar is best represented by two calendar wheels, one that lists each day god in the 260-day cycle and the other wheel shows each of the 365 vague year days.
There is not just one Aztec calendar, there are two more or less independent systems. One calendar, called the xiuhpohualli, has 365 days. It describes the days and rituals related to the seasons, and therefor might be called the agricultural year or the solar year. The other calendar has 260 days.
Large-scale Mexican-U.S. migration has changed social, economic, and cultural life on both sides of the border. Migration to the United States can offer increased earnings and savings accumulation (Gathmann 2008).
