The Mayans didn't vanish. They moved all over, partly into what is now Mexico and South America. They also moved northward, the Mayan's history is clouded by the lack of information and the understanding of what is available. The Mayan civilization had cycles of life each consisted of I believe 533 years or something like that. Their belief was that each 1000 years a "new" world or cycle would begin. Each cycle brought different elements of life such as disaster, great bounty etc... This is why the Mayan calender ends December 21, 2012. The 5,000 year cycle starts again or so it's believed.
