6. Archaeologists consider the
Olmecs to be one of only six
“pristine” civilizations: these
were cultures that developed on
their own without the benefit of
migration or influence from
some other civilization.
7. The Olmecs were able to make
several sorts of tools which
made their life easier. They
used whatever was at hand,
such as clay, stone, bone, wood
or deer antlers.

making pottery:
vessels and plates
used for storing and
cooking food. Clay
pots and vessels
were extremely
