The Olmec civilization began about 1500 B.C. The Olmec settled along the gulf of Mexico and built large religious centers, like the La Venta. The Olmecs are most famous for their huge statues of heads. These heads were possibly those of kinds. They ranged in height from 5 feet to 11 feet. They weighed as much as 20 tons. The Olmecs made the heads out of volcanic rock called basalt. But there was no basalt where the Olmecs lived. The had to bring the rock from as far as 80 miles away. they might have carved the heads and then hauled them over land. But that would have been difficult since the Olmecs didn't use wheels. They also didn't use animals to pull heavy loads. The Olmec might have floated the basalt heads on rafts down rivers. Then they could have placed the carved heads on land. No one knows they could have gotten them up the hills.
Masks for dancing, rattles to warn people off, and serving dishes reflected the Kwakiutl's respect for the spirits they felt around them.
Walking was the only means of transport available to the Olmec people. Merchants carried goods on their backs, supported by a "tumpline" around their foreheads.
They used it for clearing fields for farming.
i think tomahawk, axes, spears, bows and arrows maybe too.They might also have had atlatl's too..... they definatly used bows because many Indians reported they made the best ones... flint was a biggy because that's wat they made all there tools out of pretty much...atleast half were made out off flint and others were made out of animal bone
The Olmec used jade primarily for religious and ceremonial purposes, crafting intricate jewelry, figurines, and masks. Jade was considered a symbol of status and power, with its green color representing life and fertility in Olmec culture.
The Olmec cultural tradition used irrigated agriculture, urbanism, elaborate religions, and writing systems.
the use of stone in architecture and sculpture
Olmec sculptors used stone tools made from hard volcanic materials like basalt to transform a 20-ton stone into a massive head. They used techniques such as abrasion, pecking, and polishing to shape and carve the stone into intricate sculptures.
