Excerpt from The Museum of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 4: Science Bulletin It is highly desirable that an agreement be reached speedily among scholars on the basic correlation of Maya and European chronology. Not only is the frame work of time relations for all New World history profoundly affected by this correlation in its broader and more general implications but an exact equation which will unite the Maya and Julian day numbers is demanded as the key that alone can unlock the mysteries of ancient science and art in the great civilizations of Central America and Mexico. We now have an embarrassment of riches in that several correlations are in competition while a single solution is necessary. Some excuse for the unfortunate conflict of opinion is found in the confused record. The evidence at critical points is at once meager and contradictory, containing statements that are irreducible to any logical pattern. One lot of correlations has been formed in the normal way, on double dates which combine the Maya and European calendar systems, these dates mostly occurring in the documents of the sixteenth century. Another lot of correlations has been formed on ideal solutions of the astronomical matter in the ancient inscriptions and in the Dresden Codex. Most of the older correlations based on the historical materials as well as nearly all the purely astronomical projects of more recent date have either lapsed into innocuous desuetude or openly have been abandoned by their sponsors. Actually the brunt of controversy now strikes on two proposals, each made on interpretations of scattered references from the times of the Spanish Conquest but each reaching out for confirmation in ancient dates. It is clear that many ancient passages on stone and paper, where planetary intervals and accepted hieroglyphs form an astronomical complex, must be explained. But it would be most unwise to demand exact parallelism in mental attitude towards celestial phenomena and the occult categories of astrology for peoples of the Old and New World. One thing is certain: the marvelously accurate time machine of the Mayas can allow no shifts and equivocations.
