You lost me as soon as you mentioned Nibiru and 2012 in the same question. Nibiru is an ancient Sumerian myth which has nothing to do with the year 2012. The 2012 business has to do with the Maya, whose calendar ended in the year WE know as 2012 and then begins again. They're not remotely related.
The people who put these together are unscrupulous greedy bastards who make money by selling books and videos to people who don't understand. By linking the "prophecies", they make it look like there's more "evidence".
Have you been doing your research on that "diagnosis2012" website?

On 21 December 2012 the Illuminati will return in their black helicopters to tell us the truth about how the current British royal family managed to persuade Diana Spencer to leave her seatbelt off as she took a ride with a drunk driver.
Who told you about all of these civilisations? Did someone just invent this because they knew it was probably too difficult to check? The Aztecs, Maya, Pueblo, Hopi and Inca do not have websites or current representatives of any kind. A lot of library research would be needed to confirm or refute allegations about their calendars. Some of these people quite possibly used similar counting systems so if they had calendars, they might have had the same features.
I just read up on the Dogon the other day. There was nothing about 2012.
What stone calendar based on the Great Pyramid? First I've heard of it. There are a dozen large pyramids in Egypt surviving from the times, what about calendars based on the Step Pyramid which is older than the Great Pyramid? Being older it must have even more authority. The reality though is that is matters of science the ancient authorities were usually wrong.
Nibiru was supposed to have damaged us in 2003. However it missed entirely. If it was supposed to come close enough to damage the Earth in 2003 but didn't and really exists, it must have got reasonably close if it is following some predictable orbit. How come thousands of professional astronomers and tens of thousands of amateur astronomers around the world failed to notice it? How come ALL of these kept their mouths shut if they did see it?
The only way to predict a return of an orbiting body in 2012 or some other time is if it has a predictable and regular orbit. What are the Keplerian elements of this orbit? Has the website / book giving all the information about ancient civilisations omitted to give this basic data about the supposed orbit of this body? If not, why not?

Are you aware that the end of the world has been predicted in some form or other dozens of times in the past 1200 years? It hasn't happened yet. These predictions were mostly based on "ancient knowledge" and all of them turned out to be false. Ancient knowledge isn't all it's cracked up to be.

What does any of that actually mean? Seriously. It's just a lot of vague mumbo jumbo about something happening that some people have chosen to interpret as the end of the world.
How many of them actually say, in unequivocal terms, that there will be a catastrophic event resulting in the ACTUAL end of the human race, planet, universe or whatever, as in we are all quite definitely going to die? If they were all saying that then I might be worried, but they're not.
Nibiru itself simply does not exist. In order for it to be here in 2012 it would by now be close enough to detect, either by direct visualisation or by its gravitational effects. It's not there.

All these intelligent civilizations, except at the most one of them, were wrong about which gods were in charge of the world and what their names were. Why should any of them have been right about the end of the world? What about the other intelligent civiilizations who disagreed with them about the end of the world?
If you can select and mis-represent your data like that, you can "prove" absolutely anything you like. Learn to be objective, instead of superstitious and credulous.

I seriously doubt your assertions. Your "facts" seem rather suspect. In any case I will support the world's astronomical community against the word of the shamans of 10,000 primitive cultures any day of the week.

The wisdom of all of these intelligent civilizations is being distorted for their own purposes by some decidedly unintelligent end-of-the-world cranks.

Well, most these people also thought it was evil spirits that caused sickness, too.... If it happens, it happens. If not, well, it won't be the end of the world....
