What the hell...this is certainly HUGE! I want to know what is in the codices that relates directly to our current time frame. Just the set up of the skull tour with the ending 30 min speech gives this a bit of a "disclosure" feeling....maybe the Mayans don't give a crap about TPTB and they are going to let the world know regardless of suppression attempts.
Astonishingly, the Mexican government will not allow the Itza Council to do a ceremony on December 21, 2012 at the Chichen Itza pyramids. From the Maya viewpoint, if they don’t do these ceremonies, it will mean the end of life for the planet.
Approximately 3-4 months ago, a corporation with heavy financial backing called Unify Earth (whose sole purpose is bringing unity to the planet) leased the Chichen Itza pyramids on December 21, 2012 for the Itza Maya Council to perform their ceremony.
This event is expected to be televised to 2.5 billion people. After the ceremony, the Mayan elders will speak to the world for about 30 minutes.

is this for real? how did they get all 13 skulls?
Sounds like they gathered all the quest items needed to move on to the next section in some RPG.
EDIT: If my RPG senses are correct, the time is near where a big land mass will pull away from the Earth, and become a floating continent. The prime evil will be ruler of this land.edit on 30-10-2011 by satron because: (no reason given)

Are you a FF6 fan? xD
Eugène Boban, main French dealer in pre-Columbian artifacts during the second half of the 19th century and probable source of many famous skulls
The "Smithsonian Skull", which is Catalogue No. A562841-0 in the collections of the Department of Anthropology, National Museum of Natural History, was mailed to the Smithsonian Institution anonymously in 1992, and was claimed to be an Aztec object by its donor and was purportedly from the collection of Porfirio Diaz. It is the largest of the skulls, weighing 31 pounds and is 15 inches high. It was carved using carborundum, a modern abrasive. It has been displayed as a fake at the National Museum of Natural History.
In 2009 the C2RMF researchers published results of further investigations to establish when the Paris skull had been carved. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis indicated the use of lapidary machine tools in its carving. The results of a new dating technique known as quartz hydration dating (QHD) demonstrated that the Paris skull had been carved later than a reference quartz specimen artifact, known to have been cut in 1740. The researchers conclude that the SEM and QHD results combined with the skull's known provenance indicate it was carved in the 18th or 19th century.
The British Museum catalogues the skull's provenance as "probably European, 19th century AD"[41] and describes it as "not an authentic pre-Columbian artefact".[42] It has been established that this skull was made with modern tools, and that it is not authentic.
Although various claims have been made over the years regarding the skull's physical properties, such as an allegedly constant temperature of 70 °F (21 °C), Dorland reported that there was no difference in properties between it and other natural quartz crystals.
....
As well as the traces of mechanical grinding on the teeth noted by Dorland, Mayanist archaeologist Norman Hammond reported that the holes (presumed to be intended for support pegs) showed signs of being made by drilling with metal. Anna Mitchell-Hedges refused subsequent requests to submit the skull for further scientific testing.

What of someone was to stop the bringing together of the crystal skulls?
Would the prophecy still be completed?

I'm American and I don't believe it for one moment, any serious bit of research will show it doesn't hold up .. I'm ashamed really at all of the attention it gets.. I wish people would wise up, I hate the fact people are making money on the fear .. 2012 may as well have a trademark symbol at the end of it, it's become a commercial venture [/quote
Good for you ]
I Challenge the fools that believe this rubbish to name just ONE supernatural event that has occured on Planet Earth. Because what they are talking about here is the supernatural. They won't come up with a single example because there has never been one.

While the thought of new codex being found is great only a moron would bite on this considering the scant info given. Can anyone produce a review by known research groups like say Dumbarton Oaks? No serious student of the Maya would consider anything that didnt include a comment from that direction.
