The Mayas of the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico were great astronomers that developed three kinds of calendars. The Haab is a 365-day solar calendar. It is divided into 18 months with 20 days. It has an outer ring depicting the months using glyphs. Another calendar was the Tzolkin, a divine calendar of 260 days divided into 20 periods of 13 days.
