If this about the Mayan Calander, I think I have an answer.

The fellow responsible for pounding numbers and dates into a hefty piece of stone, got old and with his joints aching in pain said “This crap is for a younger man. I can’t do this no more. I quit...erh, I mean, I retire!”.

And so the calendar ended that day because an old man couldn’t do it anymore.

Mystery solved.

Nah, the prophet who designed the calandar looked into the future, had a vision where the world’s greatest country might re-elect a complete bumbling fool, and said ‘oy vey’ and put down the peyote, because he became convinced his visions were going astray.

It’s either the guy doing the Mayan calendar retired or...

Wasn’t the calendar on a large round stone? They found the biggest stone they could find to use and he ran out of stone in 2012. It’s just that nobody has ever found the continuation calendar stone!
