Four Versions of the "Vertical Trecena"
If one looks at this chart and reads the names associated with the numbers, one to thirteen, one finds a similar name for the 13 and for the following 01. It does not matter what the language, nor where it is located Withot the words cionnected tto the number one CANNOT use the "Horizontal Trecena" which is found iu the Madrid Codrex as the Serpent Calendar,. to mesh into the "Vertical Trecena."
As it is, when using Rome's name for the FIRST DAY OIF THE MAYA YEAR; IMIX, as the first glyph indicates, is a deliberate error, inserted by Rome.
There is no way there is a giood match., The exception is that the scribe who drew out/ the Serpent Cakendar of the Madrid Codex inserted
a caveat in Columns 46 and 4?.
CIMI IK
Chuen CIMI [should be MANIK]
If MANIK is used steadd of CIMI, and the last columns finished with the First column being placed into column 52; the Horizontal Trecena will slide Manik into secoind place as the Vertical Trecena continues=as a proper "loop" for three more agricultural years of nourishing the milpas in a proper sequence..
For those who do not know how to create the Horizotal Trecena, one must remember that each column only rotates with the four units found in the vertical version by itself . The last glyph moves always to the top witthin EACH cycle of twenty working days per week.
CONCLUSION
Four working days per week is the same concept we have of only working Monday through Friday with two days of rest.
