Archaeologists have discovered several Olmec cities, with the most notable being San Lorenzo and La Venta. San Lorenzo, believed to have been established around 1200 BCE, is known for its impressive large stone heads and complex architecture. La Venta, which flourished later around 900 BCE, features a large earthen pyramid and is renowned for its rich artistic and cultural artifacts. Both sites are critical for understanding the Olmec civilization and its influence on later Mesoamerican cultures.
