The Maya Numerical Systems and Their Potential in New Technologies

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The Maya civilization is one of the cultures of Mesoamerica that has bestowed upon us vast riches in scientific and cultural realms. Among their achievements, they developed a numerical system based on twenty, enabling them to perform complex operations using only their hands. Additionally, they designed two calendars based on astronomical studies: the "Haab" or solar calendar, and the "Tzolkin" or lunar calendar for studying biocycles and predicting life events. Despite much of this knowledge being lost due to historical events, remnants persist, allowing us to study these fascinating numerical systems to this day. As part of my postdoctoral research at JAMU (CZ), I am collaborating on the development a software application based on the compositional systems I've designed based on these calendars: "Haab - Jun," aims to open up possibilities for implementing this system with new technologies, catering to any user interested in exploring it for composition.
