Researchers have noted that another significant impact tsunami occurred around 1491 near Australia. Taking into account the 540 AD event, 1014 AD event and the 1491 AD event it thus appears that significant impact events occur every five hundred years that are capable of causing major regional destruction and global climatic disruptions.
Astronomers have argued that not only is there a 500-year cycle but also a 3,000 year cycle of impact events associated with the Taurid meteor stream. This begs the question: did the Maya know of another cycle of cosmic catastrophes that occurred every 5,000 years for which their calendar cycle was designed to encode? Did they expect another impact on or around December 21, 2012?
21. Decoding Tortuguero’s Monument 6
As we have seen so far, the Maya appeared to have recorded the actual date of a real event that devastated the ancient world 5,000 years ago. The event was undoubtedly the breakup of a comet and impact of its fragments into the Earth’s oceans that led to immense mega-tsunamis that devastated coastal civilizations around the world. In one text the Maya referred to this comet as a Cosmic Crocodile or Crocodile Star. In another they referred to it as a Celestial Bird.
The Maya recorded that this event occurred near the end of the last calendar cycle. What did the Maya expect would happen the next time the calendar cycled ended? Did they also expect another devastating impact event?
The end of the Mayan 13th Baktun occurs on December 21, 2012. They recorded this date as 13.0.0.0.0, 4 Ahaw 3 Kankin. One researcher noted that the date recorded on the previously discussed Mayan Blowgunner Vase was 1 Ahaw 3 Kankin and thus “echoed the 2012 date.”[154] As noted in Part 3, chapter 17, this vase was likely also a record of the impact event that occurred near the end of the last Mayan calendar cycle. By echoing the end of the current calendar cycle, were the Maya suggesting they thought an impact event would be associated with the end of the current calendar cycle?
To explore this idea further we must turn to Monument 6 at the Tortuguero site in Tabasco, Mexico. This is the only Mayan “prophecy” that explicitly alludes to December 21, 2012. According to various interpretations, the inscription on Monument 6 notes that the deity Bolon Yokte Kuh will “descend” on 12/21/2012.
It has been noted that Bolon Yokte played an important part in the events at the end of the previous Mayan calendar cycle. In fact, one researcher noted he is related to the Avian Bird Deity[155], another name for the Celestial Bird. Thus the fact that the Tortuguero Monument 6 records that Bolon Yokte, the Celestial Bird, descends on December 21, 2012 is eerily similar to the impact event recorded on the Mayan Blowgunner Vase. Does this suggest that the Maya believed an impact event would occur on this date?
Researchers have noted that Bolon Yokte Kuh was both a “god of war and transition, and as such, he apparently attacks and destroys the supports which hold up the sky.”[156] A deity that causes the sky to fall is consistent with an interpretation that this deity is associated with an impact event. The fact that this text mentions the encircling of this deity while wearing robes is also interesting. As noted in chapter 8, “Comet Machholz and the Return of Kukulkan,” comets were often described as wearing robes and, of course, comets’ orbits could be described as “encircling”; thus, these parts of the prophecy are also consistent with an impact interpretation.
Researches have also noted that Bolon Yokte presided over Katun 11 Ahau in the Katun prophecies in the books of Chilam Balam. Katun 11 Ahau is always the first katun of a new cycle and served as a transition from Katun 13 Ahau, the final katun of the cycle. The next Katun 11 Ahau begins in 2052. As noted in Part 1, chapter 6, “Predictions for Katun 13 Ahau (2032-2052),” the Mayan predictions for this time period sound remarkably like an impact event. Thus Bolon Yokte serving as a transition between Katun 13 Ahau and Katun 11 Ahau is fitting if the Maya were trying to encode a comet impact event.
One final association of Bolon Yokte is also interesting. One researcher noted that Bolon Yokte appears to be associated with or one-in-the-same as God L.[157] Mayan depictions of God L always show him smoking a cigar. Researchers recorded an interesting prophecy in the Yucatan about a cigar-smoking god:
“THE CIGAR OF THE LORD OF HEAVEN
Have you seen the smoking stars (meteors) in the sky? Do you know what those things are? I am going to tell you what the smoking stars are.
The lord of the heaven daily smokes his cigar, the whole day he smokes his cigar. He is watching what the people here on earth are doing while he smokes his cigar. Because there are many bad people here on earth there are days when he get angry with us. He thinks then, "I am going to finish the life there on earth." He throws then his cigar butt, he flicks it with his finger.
Only because the beautiful lady virgin Mary feels sorry for us, she saves us. When she sees the lord of heaven has just thrown his cigar she quickly moves her hand. With the back of her hand she flicks the cigar butt into the sea. But the day is going to arrive when the beautiful lady virgin Mary will be fed up with us, she will then let the cigar fall here in the middle of the earth. On that day then the whole surface of the earth has to burn. Thus then all the people here on earth will die.”[158]
If one needs an explicit reference to an impact event in order to accept the connection between Bolon Yokte Kuh with
