Volume 1: The Isolated Island Civilization Chapter 44 Mayan Calendar
Country A: New Mexico, mountainous region north of the Dowsey region.
A tall TV tower towering over a dense mountainside looks very ordinary, but it is surrounded by special forces checkpoints, and the place is locked down in the strictest way.
Following the elevator that leads deep underground, you will come to a large and dense building base. The space is divided into multiple rooms, which are connected to each other in the form of a spider web-like structure, with a total of seven floors like this, forming the entire mysterious underground architectural space from top to bottom.
Somewhere on the sixth floor.
"Professor Parker, we are really fated to be here, it is your bravery and curiosity that brought you here, otherwise this world would be missing an outstanding life engineer."
Andrew was dressed in camouflage and a black beret, staring at the old man in front of him with a very vicious and arrogant gaze, only to see that his eyes were full of confusion and melancholy.
"Ahem...... Cough...... Let me think about it. ”
Professor Parker coughed slightly, took off his silver-rimmed glasses with his trembling right hand, wiped them on the white corners of his coat, and put them back on himself, then looked with a very determined and eager gaze at the documents on the table, which recorded a confidential cooperation agreement on human trials and genetic cloning.
"Well, as annoying as it is here, it's better than being hunted down all over the world." Professor Parker struggled mentally for two days and two nights, and finally made up his mind to stay in this bloody underground base.
Architectural courtyard at the northwest end of the Mayan ruins of Copan.
A ray of sunlight shines through the dense foliage, dappling the corn god and the dragon head bird on the walls of the courtyard building.
The cacophony of electronics pierced through the windows and permeated the makeshift splicing room.
Ella hastily prints out the Drowkin ephemeris charts in the room, each detailing the size of the nested cogs, each representing a different ephemeris. After all this, she sat mechanically in front of the computer again, and the ever-changing mathematical logic began to fill her brain again. Once again, the periodic chart on the computer monitor caught her attention, and she found that the Mayan solar calendar accurately recorded a year of 365.2420 days, which was only 0.0002 days, or 17.28 seconds, from today's astronomical observations. It can be seen that the Maya's accurate understanding of the astronomy of the universe is far from being understood by modern people. She picked up the paper and excitedly recorded the results of the computer's analysis, ready to share the good news with Professor Parker, who had presided over and participated in the investigation and excavation of the pyramids.
So she walked to the next box room with the analysis data and the Mayan calendar stone carving, knocked on the door and walked in, shouting a few times, but there was no sign of Parker.
At this time, Han Yun's mother and daughter were standing in the center of the square, looking at the temple at the top of the Mayan pyramid, analyzing and guessing that there must be an unknown mystery hidden under the floor of the temple. Han Yun instructed the archaeological excavators around him:
"You have excavated the bricks on the floor of the temple, and we suspect that there will be a stone tomb tunnel there, and there may be precious artifacts that have not been destroyed."
"Okay, we're going to dig ......," replied the excavator next to him.
When Han Yun heard Ella's shout, he hurried over.
"Ella, are you looking for Professor Parker?" Han Yun saw Ella, whose face was full of loss, coming out of Professor Parker's studio.
"Dear Professor Han, do you know where Professor Parker is? I'd like to give him a compilation of these latest research reports. Ella looked at her humanities mentor, Professor Han Yun, whom they had met at the University of Michigan, and spoke with great respect.
"Well, I asked him to bring these stone tablets from the Yucatan Peninsula, so let me keep them here for safekeeping. Are there any major findings from your research? Han Yun walked into Parker's work room and asked Alan further.
"I found that in the Mayan civilization, time was at the heart of the Mayan cosmology. The Dzolkin calendar appears to be a special religious calendar, with the year divided into 13 months of 20 days per month, for a total of 260 days per year. This dating method is not based on the Earth's orbit around the Sun. According to astronomers, there are no planets in our solar system that are eligible for this calendar. Alan pondered at this time, and wondered very incomprehensibly.
"The Earth year and the Venus year are 365 and 225 days respectively, which means that the Dzolkin calendar does not belong to the Earth."
Professor Han Yun firmly analyzed, "As far as I know, there are no planets in our solar system that apply this calendar. This calendar is basically the same as the eighteen-month solar calendar of the Yi people in China. The eighteen-month solar calendar of the Yi nationality is the same as the ancient Mayan solar calendar, the year is divided into 18 months, a month is 20 days, a total of 360 days, the difference is only the remaining 5 days, the Maya people call it taboo day, and the Wuding Yi people call it the New Year's Day. The Zolkin calendar and the solar calendar show that the Maya people mastered advanced deep-space space technology in the past, and did not lag behind modern civilization in astronomy, mathematics, religion, etc. ”
"Perhaps hundreds of millions of years ago, a group of extraterrestrial visitors from other planets of the solar system came to Earth with scientific and technological knowledge far beyond ours, and passed it on to the indigenous people of Earth, bringing them the prosperity and strength of the Mayan civilization. These visitors also became the gods of the Maya, such as the god of corn, the god of Quetzalcoatl, and the god of birds. Han Yuting looked at the conversation between her mother and Ella, and said with a little feeling.
"Your guess is not impossible!"
Han Yun looked at Han Yuting with a praising look, and then made a further assumption, "Maybe there is an extraterrestrial planet with a period of 260 days, and its orbit should be between Venus and Earth, not between Jupiter and Mars. According to scientists' calculations, the star once existed, but later due to an unknown event, the planet exploded and disintegrated, and its remains formed a meteorite belt made of countless rubble. These highly developed Drowgins came to Earth, Mars, and other planets in droves, adapting themselves to the gravitational environment by modifying their genes. ”
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Professor Han Yun stroked Parker's clean desk, seemed to sense his departure with her characteristic acumen, and silently prayed for his safety, the friend who had helped him all the way.
"There's a big discovery! Professor Han! ”
An excited voice broke the silence in the room for a moment, and the archaeological excavator hurriedly ran over to report.
"Well, let's go over and see the scene together."
After Han Yun finished speaking, everyone followed her to the temple at the top of the Mayan pyramid. Climb the pyramid and see the vast forest sea.
A secret passage appeared behind the stone door of the temple, leading directly to the burial chamber forty meters underground.
On the walls on either side of the burial chamber stand nine Mayan clay statues, and on the central pillar stands a huge sarcophagus about four meters long. The lid of the coffin is covered with elaborate and intricate patterned statues, and three jade belts with masks are additionally carved. When the sarcophagus was opened, it was found that the remains of a tall figure with an emerald face lay inside, surrounded by countless precious jade, bracelets and amulets. Such a grand and luxurious tomb is enough to judge that the owner of the tomb is by no means an ordinary Mayan.
"Wow! Look! ”
Han Yuting blinked her big eyes with a little curiosity, pointed to the exquisite relief on the sarcophagus, and said unexpectedly, "Doesn't it look like an astronaut is piloting a spaceship?" ”
Everyone scanned the stone carving and clearly saw that on the stone cover, there was a pattern that looked like a rocket section, and in the pattern was a man holding a joystick, like a modern astronaut. This "astronaut" is very special, his nose reaches straight to the forehead, like a long wedge, which seems to be the frontal nose man of Mayan legend.
Ella was also intrigued by the image, and speculated that "the owner of the tomb may have believed in the reincarnation of a soul and re-descended to the underworld as a fetus." A tree also grew on his body, and there was a sacred bird on the tree, which symbolized that the Mayans were guided by the gods to free life from the cycle of life and death and move towards eternal life! ”
"Perhaps there were aliens who visited the jungles of Central America, taught the Mayans advanced science and technology, and then flew to the outer space planet with a small number of Mayans, and those abandoned Mayans gradually disappeared in the vast river of history with their civilization." Professor Han Yun muttered to himself, an indescribably complex expression permeating the surroundings.
"Or, for the sake of the continuation and development of the race, the descendants of the Maya escaped the catastrophe of the Great Flood of the Earth, entered the underground world through underground tunnels, and established the initial geocentric civilization. This conjecture corresponds to the theory of the hollowness of the earth proposed by the ancient Greek scholar Eudox. ”
The next day, a university in Huaxia, in the Tianyi mecha store on European Street.
The popularity is full and the business is booming, thanks to Wu Yan. An Lina's sitting in charge has attracted more rich second-generation students on campus, and they have witnessed her beauty since buying a mecha master.
"Hi Randy! We've made a fortune......." Wu Yan said with surprise on her face as she looked at the cashier drawer stuffed with gold bills.
"Haha, business has been really good these days, thanks to classmate Wu Yan!" Pan Tianyi looked at her a little embarrassed, his face shining like sunshine.
"How do you plan to spend this income, and have you ever considered studying abroad?" Wu Yan walked up to Pan Tianyi, with a light smile on her face, the corners of her mouth turned up, and a pair of beautiful big eyes with green light were staring at him teasingly.
"It's a really good idea, when I have learned almost all the professional knowledge in China, I will go to country A to continue my studies, so as to expand my knowledge of the world."
Pan Tian looked at Wu Yan, who had a hot figure and sultry eyes in front of him, scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and then moved his gaze to the outside of the store, "Tomorrow is the computer grade exam, I will go on the computer in the afternoon to simulate the exam process, and the small shop will work hard for you to take care of it." ”
"Oh...... Then you will be busy first, and I won't tease you. ”
Wu Yan glanced at him resentfully, turned around and sat on the bar counter in the store, and elegantly picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
