I do not believe this is an end date more like a begining date however, a second heiroglyph uncovered recently depicting the end of the Mayan long count calander.

Well... it's a "clock!"

Take the analogy of the "Long count" being a 24-hour clock and the "Short count" being the 12-hour dial of any ordinary clock. Two Short Counts for one Long Count... and every day, at midnight, the new day replaces the one just expired.

The only trouble is that no one knows what cycle they started their bloody clock on. That is, what kind of "day" their "clock" is measuring.

Then, when one thinks of all the various religious "clocks" with not one related to the other and none having anything to do with the price of fish.
