The calendar played a crucial role in the Shang Dynasty by regulating agricultural activities, which were central to the economy and society. By providing a structured way to track seasons and agricultural cycles, it enabled farmers to optimize planting and harvesting times, leading to increased productivity.

The Mayan calendar is often perceived as "wrong" due to misconceptions about its end date, which was misinterpreted as predicting the apocalypse in December 2012.
