The maya’s calendar is system of the calendars created by a civilisation maya in before Columb to Central America. This calendar was used also by others people of the Central America — Aztecs, toltecs, etc.
It is curious that the calendar maya corresponds with astronomical year, than a modern Gregorian calendar is better.
Typical date of a calendar maya looks approximately so: 12.18.16.2.6, 3 Kimi of 4 Sots where 12.18.16.2.6 is a date the long account, 3 Kimi — zolkin, 4 Sots — haab.
Correlations 584 283 and 584 285 mean the following. Maya considered time in cycles from 13 buctuns (13?144 000 days). Was 0.0.0.0.0, 4 Ahau, 8 Kumhu initial date of a cycle in which we live. The problem arises at finding-out of equivalent date of this beginning in our terms. It has led to pair of correlations which lag behind from each other all for two days. If the system of the long account was used till now, this problem would be easier for resolving, but it was not used maya at the time of Spanish conquista.
