Olmec Head

TIME : 2016/2/18 10:10:33

Dominating the main plaza, this stone monolith is known as the ‘Cobata head,’ after the estate where it was found. Thought to be a very late Olmec production, it’s the biggest known Olmec head, weighing in at 40 tons, and is unique in that its eyes are closed.
