It is different from the Arabie number system with a base 10. The Mayan system had a base 20. This system is belicved to have been used becane the Mavans lived in such a warm area and there was hardly a need to wear shoes, 20 was tbe total number of fingers and toes, so the system was workable. Therefore, there were two important numbers in this system. Besides 20, the other important mumber is 5, which had a connection with the number of fingers and toes on one hand or foot The Mayan system used two symbols (符号). A dot () was used to mean the units (one to four) and a dash(-) meant five. The Mavans were alro the firt to ereate symbols of nothing (or zero).
