Haab Calendar Wheel
The
Maya have many calendars that are used to calculate time.
One is the Haab or monthly calendar.
It is a yearly cycle comprised of 18 months of 20 days in
length plus one 5 day period that marks the end and beginning
of the cycle for a total of 365 days.
Because it does not include a “leap year”, its correspondence
to our Gregorian calendar shifts over time.
In 2006 the Haab calendar returned to its starting point of
0 Pop on April 4.
