the first answerer is a complete dumbass. The Maya invented the zero, halves, and made the most accurate calender ever. Halves weren't exactly used all the time though, for their system of math was a system of 20s not 10s

All I know about the Mayans is they did not have halves... nor did they have a zero.

Half? One either has something (accounts for it) or one hasn't.
