MUR Energy Arts developer Garth Harvey has actually produced a brand-new kind of Olmec Art. According to Mr. Harvey, "the Olmec head sculptures are so magnificent that I had to develop my variation of the olmec in minature kind and for the modern-day era".

Each MUR Olmec Sculpture is made from clay and each piece is not a total olmec head but, instead of olmec styled faces that are embedded on a cube. Five sides of the cube are textured and stone feel that resembles lava stone. The cubes can kept in the palm of your and are pretty effective in feel and appearance. I have mine placed on my desk and when I have my customers stop by they tend to be mesmerized by my sculpture.

Olmec Art History

There is no question that we have a lot of strange discoveries worldwide and many of them have actually been discovered however still stay a total secret about how they were made and exactly what the purpose for their creation was. The Olmec head history is quite a mystery to this point is that they had actually bee shaped as a tribute to the Olmec rulers.

There are a total of 17 heads that have actually been dug up so far and possibly there are a lot more that are still underground. A total of 10 of these heads have actually been found in San Lorenzo, while 4 of them originated from La Venta. These are two of the primary Olmec areas. These heads had probable bee sculpted from a single Stone that was probably moved a minimum of 80 miles or even more prior to it reached the destination where it would be sculpted.

The Olmec heads would certainly have actually been made to commemorate the most popular Olmec Warriors, but it seems like a few of the heads did not have the same level of information and care than others. This could easily indicate that the heads were not sculpted by artists with the very same ability level.

The heads have an overall of 3 meters in height and 4.5 in circumference with no less than 8 lots of weight to each one of them. They are all colorless, but research suggests that they probably got repainted in extremely bright colors eventually, all though there are no indicators on the stones.

It's worth discussing that the Olmec were the very first culture that originated from Mexico. They had numerous gods that had animal shapes and they were quite competent with their hands as the Olmec heads suggest. Their architectural skills were also fairly advanced.
