olmec
The Olmec culture was one of the earliest civilizations in Mesoamerica, dating back to around 1400 BCE. They are known for their colossal heads, stone carvings, and ceremonial centers. The Olmec had a complex society with a sophisticated understanding of agriculture, trade, and religion.
Some aspects of Olmec culture that influenced Maya and Aztec civilizations include complex ceremonial centers, the importance of maize in their economies, and the use of hieroglyphic writing systems. Additionally, the Olmec likely influenced the development of calendars, religious beliefs, and artistic styles in these later Mesoamerican cultures.
Trade was important to the Olmec culture because it allowed them to acquire resources not available in their region, such as jade and obsidian. This facilitated the development of their society and helped establish social and economic connections with other Mesoamerican groups. Trade also played a role in spreading Olmec influence and culture beyond their immediate territory.
The Olmec civilization created a culture that greatly influenced the Aztecs.
