2012 Mayan calendar cartoon
The world didn’t come to an end on 21st December 2012 after all
A cartoon about the Mayan ‘prophecy’ of the end of the world at the winter solstice 2012
The cartoon shows a Mayan gift shop selling a Mayan calendar for 2013, which has been put on display immediately after the world didn’t come to an end on 21st December 2012 (winter solstice).
Part of the joke is that the Mayan calendar was not put on display until after the prediction of the end of the world had passed – because the owners of the Mayan gift shop were busy making money out of the Mayan prophecy of the end of the world until then.
A cartoon about millenarian cults, millenarianism, end of the world cults.
