The Olmecs : America's first civilization / Richard A. Diehl.
"The Olmecs presents the first modern overview of information from recent archaeological field projects and studies of Olmec art. In addition to detailed consideration of Olmec life, culture and art, it examines the Olmec presence in the surrounding areas of Mexico and their role in the formation of pre-Columbian Mesoamerican civilization. Profusely illustrated, this survey will become the standard work on this enigmatic culture." --Book Jacket.
