On a visit to the Mayan ruins at Tulum on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, I
was impressed by how many facts and details the local tour guide knew. I was
especially entranced by the temple, and asked the guide for details. To
this, the guide stated that archaeologists are carrying out excavations, and
still finding great treasures.

I asked about the approximate age of the ruins and he quickly replied, “This
temple is 1203 years old”.

Impressed at this accurate dating, my next question was how he could be
certain of the exact age.

“Easy”, replied the guide. “I heard archaeologists say the temple was 1200
years old, and that was about three years ago”
