End of era inscriptions found in Guatemala

Ancient Mayan text has emerged from the jungles of Guatemala confirming the so-called "end date" of the Maya calendar as Dec. 21, 2012. Considered one of the most significant hieroglyphic finds in decades, the 1,300-year-old inscription contains only the second known reference to the "end date" but does not predict doomsday. "The text talks about ancient political history rather than prophecy" Marcello A. Canuto, director of Tulane University's Middle American Research Institute, said.
