Retrieved from Anne Kohs, Anne Kohs & Associates: Manuel Neri’s title “Catun” (K’atun) was referencing a unit of time in the Maya calendar (7,200-day period in the Maya Long Count calendar). Each K’atun had its own prophecies and importance for rulers and ceremonies. For Manuel Neri, he was referencing a new series of figurative sculptures. [JH 02/06/2026]
