Olmec Head

The Olmec civilization was centered in towns in Veracruz and Tabasco and thrived from around 1200 b.c. to around 500 b.c. Aspects of Olmec life have been found throughout Southern Mexico. Called, the "cultural mother" of Mexican civilization, the Olmecs apparently had connections with Africans, and quite possibly with Asians, the Chinese of those times being Ocean travellers. The African ties, reflected in the giant stone heads, were a natural development of strong Atlantic Ocean currents that swept from West Africa into the Caribbean Sea.
