HOW TO CONVERT MAYA LONG COUNT DATES TO GREGORIAN DATES
1. Multiply the numbers in the Long Count calendar by units given in the table below (center column).
2. Add the number of days together. If the Maya Long Count date is, say, 9.15.6.14.6
(9 “bak’tuns”, 15 “k’atuns”, 6 “tuns”, 14 “winals”, and 6 “k’ins”): do the following
calculations:
Long Count number: multiplied by: result:
9 144 000 1 296 000
15 7 200 108 000
6 360 2 160
14 20 280
6 1 6
Maya day number: 1 406 446
