Kalender-kalender Mesoamerika

Prasasti 12 dan 13 dari Monte Alban, kemungkinan berasal dari tahun 500-400 SM. Prasasti-prasasti ini mungkin merupakan kalender tertua yang telah ditemukan di Mesoamerika.^[1]

Kalender-kalender Mesoamerika adalah sistem kalender yang dirancang dan digunakan oleh kebudayaan-kebudayaan pra-Kolumbus di Mesoamerika. Selain untuk ketepatan waktu, kalender-kalender Mesoamerika juga digunakan untuk ritual sosial dan keagamaan.

Kalender sudah ada di Mesoamerika paling tidak dari sekitar tahun 500 SM. Sistem kalender Mesoamerika kini masih digunakan di wilayah dataran tinggi Guatemala^[2] serta di negara bagian Veracruz, Oaxaca, dan Chiapas di Meksiko.^[3]
