玛雅人是世上*神秘的民族，他们在资源匮乏的中美洲热带雨林里创造出来的灿烂文化——精密的历法、高耸的金字塔、众多的纪年碑……令当代叹为观止。  玛雅人是按照预言为未来而活的民族：深信预言书中的记载，安然接受既定的未来。  靠仅存的三本玛雅古书，使后人很难破解玛雅文化从何而来、因何而终，却能从中处处感受到那种无畏、镇定而等待的神秘。  玛雅文明已不复见，但玛雅传说令后人浮想联翩——  世界将以何种方式终结？人类的未来会是怎样的？  …… 苏晓，江苏南通人，北京大学环境地理系毕业。专职撰稿人。已出版《逻辑思维训练500题》《青少年逻辑思维能力训练》（初级版、中级版、高级版、超难版、方法应用版5种）、《历史的诡计》等。 一  预言1.活在预言中的民族                            0012.上帝的启示                                       0033.《推背图》                                       0084.知道我这碗里是什么东西吗？           0095.诸葛亮的《马前课》                         0116.《梅花诗》                                       013二　玛雅人来自何处1.玛雅文明                                          0172.殷商大军的踪迹                                0223.外星来客                                          038三　玛雅人是怎么消失的1.惨烈的战争                                       0552.花柳病、瘟疫                                   0593.人口大爆炸                                       0654.自负与宿命观                                   0665.生态危机                                          0676.寻觅新的家园                                   069四　与神在一起1.祸福相继、无常为常                         0712.血腥人祭                                          0803.克星西班牙人                                   088五　神话和传说1.玛雅人的神谱                                   0962.诸神之战                                          1063.黑狗变成一个漂亮姑娘                     1094.抢夺火种的接力赛                            1115.灵猴祖珂                                          1136.悲情的故事                                       1157.先知的金铃                                       118六　玛雅人的四个等级1.贵族                                                 1222.祭司                                                 1233.平民                                                 1244.奴隶                                                 125七　玛雅人的生活1.希望寄托在孩子身上                         1272.起个好名字                                       1303.最不浪漫的婚姻                                1324.永生不死                                          137八　伟大的创造1.象形文字梯道                                   1392.为什么建造金字塔？                         1423.密林中的沟渠网络                            1474.纪年柱                                              1495.最引人注目的成就                            153九　早熟的抽象思维1.在计算中引入“0”                          1592.奇布查天文台                                   1623.历法                                                 1654.给宇宙排次序                                   172十　历史的面相1.蒂卡尔玛雅遗址                                1752.科潘玛雅遗址                                   181十一　第五个太阳纪元1.屠杀与焚毁                                       1862.创世神话                                          1933.纪元的轮回                                       1984.文明的对应                                       2055.第四个太阳纪                                   2076.精神变革                                          2137.等待飞往太空的那一天                     220十二　人类的未来1.历史是一张普罗透斯的脸                  2252.薛定谔的那只猫                                2383.科学与真理并不能划等号                  241十三　人类将以何种方式灭绝？1.外星生命入侵
