The fictional film with the very strange title "Apocalypto" - not a word in any known language - does not depict any one specific time period. It includes elements of many different time periods in Mayan history and puts them together for dramatic effect, which is all it is really concerned with.

Anyone trying to learn history from Hollywood is foolish, since the only two purposes of any Hollywood movie are (1) to make money and (2) to be entertaining. Being historically accurate is never a concern of movie-makers.
