-THE BITCOIN BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

In 1862, explorer José María Melgar y Serrano uncovered a colossal stone sculpture at Tres Zapotes, Mexico — and the mystery of the Olmec heads was born.

In the years since, 17 stone heads dating to around 3,400 years ago have been uncovered in modern-day Mexico. Researchers believe they were made by the Olmecs, a Mesoamerican civilization that predated the Aztecs and the Maya.

Each head has distinct facial features and was likely painted in vibrant color — and scholars have suggested they were meant to depict different rulers. Curiously, many of them appear to have been intentionally buried, perhaps to symbolize shifts in power or as a form of ancestor worship.
