Download or read book Discovering the Olmecs written by David C. Grove and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Olmecs are renowned for their massive carved stone heads and other sculptures, the first stone monuments produced in Mesoamerica. Seven decades of archaeological research have given us many insights into the lives of the Olmecs, who inhabited parts of the modern Mexican states of Veracruz and Tabasco from around 1150 to 400 BC. Beginning with the first modern explorations in the 1920s, the story of how generations of archaeologists and local residents have uncovered the Olmec past and pieced together a portrait of an ancient civilization that left no written records unfolds. From stories of fortuitous discoveries and frustrating disappoints, helpful collaborations and deceitful shenanigans emerges the unconventional history of Olmec archeology.

Download or read book The Olmecs written by Hourly History and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The OlmecsMany ancient civilizations are described as mysterious, but none provide as many puzzles and unanswered questions as the Olmecs. These people arrived in lands near the Gulf of Mexico around 1500 BCE, and they brought with them entirely new concepts in terms of engineering, agriculture, and religion. The problem is, we have no idea where they came from or how they developed these new ideas. Then, around 400 BCE, the Olmecs vanished as suddenly and inexplicably as they appeared, leaving behind no written records but providing a legacy of beliefs and ideas which permeated virtually every Mesoamerican culture which followed.Inside you will read about...✓ Origins✓ The Olmec Enigma✓ The Fall of San Lorenzo✓ Were-Jaguars and Feathered Serpents✓ The Rise of La Venta✓ The Disappearance of the OlmecsAnd much more!Respected scholars take very different views on the Olmec civilization. Some feel that the Olmecs must have come to Central America from somewhere else entirely, while others are adamant that they are indigenous people. Some historians believe that the Olmecs were simply one of several cultures which emerged at around the same time, while others are vehement that this is the mother culture from which all subsequent Mesoamerican cultures descended. Less than one hundred years ago, there wasn't even agreement on whether these people had existed at all.There are very few cultures as important as the Olmecs about which we know so little. This book attempts to convey the story of the mysterious Olmecs and their unique and fascinating artifacts.

Book excerpt: "The wondrous forces of the Orisha in kingdoms of the Olmec."Around 4,000 years ago, the Olmec rose and flourished in Mexico. The mysterious ascension of this civilization occurred in the Veracruz region characterized by ridges, hills, and volcanoes in the likeness of Aganjú-the Orisha of Volcanoes. The dynastic kings commissioned artisans to carve their faces into volcanic stone weighing 20 tons or more. Their colossal portraits and altars were carved with the sacred symbols of the jaguar, turtle, and lightning in the fashion of Shango-the Orisha of Lightning. The jaguar-eagle warriors enforced the laws of Olmec provinces carrying out the same duties of Ochosi-the Orisha of Law and Justice. In the Way of the Orisha, the Olmec religion emphasized ancestral veneration, the cosmos, interaction between humans and deities, divination, and a priesthood to preside over the sacred traditions. Behold, the marvels of the Orishas in the powerful civilization of the ancient Olmec.
