THE
FIRST MAYAN CALENDAR
The beginning: a Journal Entry is unlocked
The
circle is in fact a Mayan Calendar. Go to the center and place the Jaguar’s
Head from the
Approach the central statue with the lever
Place the Jaguar’s head on the statue
Observe
the Mayan Calendar: it is composed of 3 rings that can be separately moved. The
central part on which the Jaguar statue is placed has a single stained tile on
top of one of its 12 segments and cannot be moved.
There
are 3 rings each composed of segments and the rings can rotate. Each ring
contains a similar stained tile like the central part has, but surrounded by a
larger tile in a darker color, forming a panel. The goal is to align these three
stained panels with the central tile. The panel of the outer ring is already
aligned with the central tile. The goal is now to align them with the panels of
the inner and middle rings.
The
lever of the Jaguar statue moves the inner and middle ring together – for the
time being. On one of the segments of the outer ring a statue with a golden
skull is placed. This statue moves the outer ring: stand behind it and press B1
to hold the handles.
The panel of the outer ring is aligned with the central tile
Controlling the rotation the inner and
middle ring
Controlling the rotation of the outer
ring
Start
with the lever of the Jaguar statue and align the panel of the middle ring with
that of the outer ring. You will hear a click when the panels are aligned. The
inner ring is moving too, but that doesn’t matter.
Align the panels of the middle and outer rings
The
Jaguar statue has also rotated the inner ring. To separate the rotation of the
inner ring from the middle ring go to the Skull statue and rotate the outer ring
counter clockwise. The ring will rise until the rotation capacity stops.
Raising the inner ring separates it from the middle ring
Now
the Jaguar handle will only rotate the inner ring. The middle ring is set
steady. Hence, go to the Jaguar statue and align the middle panel with the
central tile and the panel of the middle ring. You will hear a similar click
with the correct alignment.
The central tile aligned with the panels of inner and middle rings
Finally
replace the panel of the outer ring with the Skull statue which will lower the
inner ring to its original position causing a complete alignment of the three
panels and the central tile.
The alignment is completed
A
Cut Scene will then show how the blocks on the lower plaza are completely
rearranged (but I have no idea what the purpose of this rearrangement is).
The rearrangement of the blocks down below
Return
under the opening you came in through where the corpses are still lying. Two
Panthers will attack. Take your heavy gun and stand on the nearby block
formation from where you can shoot them safely.
Shoot the Panthers
Return
to the bike, turn away from the temple and follow the path on your right leading
to a manmade ramp of logs held together by ropes.
Get
off the bike and walk to the edge of the log ramp. Look down to see a pit with
two huge logs full of deadly spikes.
Stop by the ramp
Get off the bike and look down from the
ramp
Return
to the bike, drive backwards and align with the ramp on the right side. Start
the engine and keep accelerating so you can cross the deadly pit along the right
side of the beam ramp.
Start here
Cross the pit
Land on the opposite side
Continue
along the road until you soon will meet another deadly pit. Follow along the
left narrow road to cross the pit. At the end you will get down to the next
section of the road.
The second pit
Drive along the left narrow path
Behind
the pit you’ll see a ruined stone construction where the road turns right.
Ride to the front of the steps and notice two jars. Get off the bike and smash them.
One contains Treasure #10.
Approach the stairs
Smash the jars and collect your 10th
Treasure
The
steps lead through a tunnel. Drive through and turn right to stop in front of a
large staircase leading down through an arch to the lower plaza (the one you saw
where the blocks were rearranged). Go down the stairs and smash the two jars on
the right side in front of the tunnel. One contains Treasure #11. Perhaps that
is why the blocks had to be rearranged? To open the staircase, I don’t know?
Stop here and step from the bike looking at the staircase leading down to
the plaza
Smash the jars for Treasure #11
Continue
through the arch and at the end of the next staircase 2 more jars are on your
right. The brown one contains Treasure #12.
Turn
right find another brown jar in the right corner of the plaza. Get Treasure #13.
Turn
left and find a rounded jar around the corner: filled with air. Left by the
corners there are two more jars. The brown one is containing Treasure #14.
It’s raining water drops and Treasures here.
Jars and Treasures
Turn
left from the corner and sprint past the central rearranged block construction
to the corner where you will find a brown jar containing Treasure #15.
Sprint past the central arrangement
The jar in the corner contains Treasure
#15
Your
job is finished here. Return up to the steps to your bike and drive through the
opposite arch. Follow a narrow path left leading upwards. At the highest point
of the road you will see a jar on your right. Get off the bike and smash the jar
for Treasure #16.
Drive through the arch
Follow a narrow path left going upwards
Your 16th Treasure is hidden
in this jar
Walk
a bit further passing a tree on your right and notice 2 jars. The straight brown
one contains your Treasure #17.
Smash the jars and collect Treasure #17
Return to where you parked your bike near Treasure #16, turn around and return from this path to the exit of the arch.
The other end of the arch
Turn
around and go straight to a 3rd Ruin. When approaching the ruin a
Panther will attack. Do a few rounds with your motorcycle and run over him.
Three runs will get him to hell.
Say bye-bye to this Panther
When
you reach the ruins get off your bike and ascend the stairs.
Get off your bike here
Ascend the stairs
Go
through an arch and watch a
Looters and Panthers are fighting each other
There
is a block in front with a Health potion. Down below the stairs there’s a
looter that you can target and shoot with your Pistols. OK that’s one less for
the coming up fight.
Now
it’s time to go down. If you go down from the stairs on your right side a
looter will be in front of you. Take care of him with the Pistols.
Just
find your way around and find a couple of jars of which the brown one contains
your Treasure #18
Shoot the looter after getting
down
Retrieve Treasure #18 from the brown
jar
Now
you can go to the central block and take the Health Potion. From here you can
shoot the looter on the opposite wall.
Jump up to the central block
Take the Health Potion
Shoot the looter from here
Right
of this spot you can run to a corner where you will find a second Health Potion.
This Health Potion was well hidden
On
the right side of the stairs there is a pole with golden bands that you can pick
up.
Pick up this decorated pole
Run
up the stairs and kill another Panther (drop the pole first).
Keep shooting from the stairs
Another
looter appears on top of the stairs that you can shoot but he will disappear
behind some stone construction. Get behind the couple of pillars and finish the
job. Where the guy fell down there is a jar containing your Treasure #19.
Shoot the looter
Get behind the stone pillars and finish
off the job
A jar containing Treasure #19
There
is another Health Potion on the edge on top of the staircase you can grab.
Take this Health Potion
Go
down the stairs and pick up the wooden pole again that you dropped when fighting
the Panther. Run up the stairs with the pole and go to the right side of a
pillar with a hole where you can stick in the pole. Jump to the pole, pull up
and jump to the top of the pillar where a jar contains Treasure #20.
The hole for your pole
Jump up to the pole
This jar contains your 20th
Treasure
Jump
down and remember where the pole is sticking in because you will need this pole
later on. Go to the
Treasure #21 in this jar
Now
you have to return toe the spot where you stacked the pole into the hole in
order to obtain Treasure #20. Jump
up to the pole and when the yellow hand appears press B1 to get the pole out of
the hole.
Retrieve the pole
