THE AZTEC CALENDAR: MATH AND DESIGN
In the book The Aztec Calendar: Math and Design, Charles William
Johnson examines the possible relationships between mathematics and geometry.
The historically significant numbers may reflect progressions which in
turn may be translated into geometrical figures and designs. No one knows
for certain how the Aztec Calendar may have been read or interpreted.
Its simbolic design is striking and has intrigued scholars for centuries.
The Aztec Calendar: Math and Design explores the stone's elements and
rings in relation to their spatial divisions in an attempt to discern
a possible method of computation, using the historically significant numbers
of the ancient reckoning system. The book promotes the existence of specific
mathematical posits that the geometrical spatial division of the calendar's
elements appear to obey.
