To bad there were no longer any Mayans before the Spanish arrived. They integrated with the other surrounding civilizations or died out.

It's too bad no body kep up the calendar after that. I thought I read that some of the natives DID know that the spanish were coming down to the very day. Why don't you look it up.
Certainly it is a mystery made even more so by the fact that they were able to fool the Spanish into thinking they were still there and that they finally conquered them in 1697 according to Wikipedia.
