Nancy Drew: Secret of the Scarlet Hand Hints
How can I solve the Calendar Puzzle?
1 of 3: Read the plaque. Set the wheels so that the calendar reads 12 Kaban.
2 of 3: Place the Kaban tile icon in the outer window (16 clicks) and the number 12 in the inner window (11 clicks). Make a note of the Lamat glyph for a later puzzle -- the month that Pacal ascended to the throne.
3 of 3: Rotate the outer wheel to the Kaban symbol. Now rotate the inner wheel until you hear a ding, which will be the Mayan number for 12.
