This page
Many years ago I put Mayan numbers on this page for my own purposes. Then I sensed that many students in Central America wanted this very composition. I mean, a composition of Mayan numbers from 1 to 100 on two different tables. A table of 10 and a vigesimal table of 20.
So I took the liberty of translating this page into other languages.
