Olmec
The Olmec civilization developed in south central Mexico in the 16th century BCE. The Olmecs flourished from 1500 BCE until about 400 BCE. The Olmecs laid the groundwork for other Meso-american civilizations that followed. The Olmecs are now known largely for their artwork, primarily their "Colossal Heads".
It flourished around 1500 BC.
The Olmec civilization began around 1200 BC in the southern parts of Mexico.
The Olmec's were the first major civilization in Mexico. They flourished during Mesoamerica's formative period, from 1500 BCE to about 400 BCE.
The Olmec people first become known to us as a pre-Columbian civilization in the tropical lowlands of what is now south-central Mexico from as early as 1500 BC. The cultures from which the Olmec derived flourished in the area as early as about 2500 BC, but the first clearly Olmec center appears within the city of San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán around 1400 BC. The Olmec cannot be said to have "first settled" anywhere, because they developed from communities already in place in the region.

The three major civilizations of Mesoamerica were the Olmec, Aztec, and Maya. These civilizations developed in the regions what are present day Mexico and Central America. The Olmec are the oldest civilization of these three.
