Written in the early 20th century, 'Was the Beginning Day of the Maya Month Numbered Zero (or Twenty) or One?' by Charles P. Bowditch explores the intricacies of the Maya calendar system. The book investigates whether the Mayans considered the first day of the month as Day 0, 20, or 1, addressing a significant debate among scholars. Bowditch analyzes evidence from the Dresden Codex and inscriptions to support Goodman's theory that the month began with Day 0, providing a detailed examination of the Maya's unique counting methodology.
