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.
