Over the weekend, I was asked if I might be able to get a little look at some of the images on the Cascajal Block, the large hunk of serpentine that is thought to be associated with the late Early or early Middle Formative Olmec civilization of about 900 BC. Good idea!
- Cascajal Block: High Resolution Images
- Cascajal Block: Olmec Writing?
- Olmec Civilization Timeline and Definition
- More Resources on the Olmec
- Oldest Writing in the New World, the original article in Science is now available for download online

Dear Kris,
Interesting perspective.

Thanks, Stan! Did you click on through to the high resolution images? (I can never tell if I give enough information or not in the blogs).
