The Birth of Civilization in Ancient Mesoamerica
When -and for what purposes-did the peoples of pre-Columbian Middle America seek to develop from hunter-gatherers into the creators of some of the most renowned cities in the entire history of ancient civilization? Are all the great civilizations of Mesoamerica-the Maya, Aztecs, Olmecs, Zapotecs, and others-part of one great culture? Were there “strong continuities” in ancient Mesoamerica that created this one great civilization known as ancient Mesoamerica, that then flourished from 1200 BC to 1521 AD? What factors prompt the birth and define the characteristics of civilization, anyway? A study of Mesoamerica's cultural creation provides many clues.

Another Mystery of Mesoamerica: The Enigma of the Olmecs
Evidence points to the Olmecs as the first emerging civilization of Mesoamerica, not the Maya. The discovery remains a quiet one--but should be getting as much attention as the discovery of Troy. Who's been keeping it quiet and why? Once more, an ancient culture emerges seemingly intact--with little evidence of early development. Where did the Olmecs come from? The find is wrought, still with controversy.
