The Mayans used a similar time frame as we do today. With the exception that the Mayan calendar did not account for leap year…. so technically the world should have ended 7 months ago.
So much for the end of the world.

The Mayan calendar consists of 18 months, each with 20 days, making a total of 360 days. Additionally, there is a separate period called the "wayeb" which consists of 5 extra days. This creates a 365-day calendar system.
