John Major Jenkins

John Major Jenkins (1964–2017) was an independent researcher and author renowned for his detailed study of the Mayan Long Count calendar and his development of the "galactic alignment" theory, proposing that the 2012 end-date marked a rare astronomical alignment with the galactic center. As a guest on late-night radio, his meticulous work in Maya Cosmogenesis 2012 brought scholarly depth to the 2012 phenomenon and distinguished his research from popular sensationalism.
