Olmec hieroglyphs (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Olmec hieroglyphs (alternatively Olmec glyphs, Olmec writing, or Olmec script) designate a possible system of writing or proto-writing developed within the Olmec culture. The Olmecs were the earliest known major Mesoamerican civilization, flourishing during the formative period (1500 BCE to 400 BCE) in the tropical lowlands of the modern-day Mexican states of Veracruz and Tabasco. The subsequent Epi-Olmec culture (300 BCE to 250 CE), was a successor culture to the Olmec and featured a full-fledged writing system, the Isthmian (or Epi-Olmec) script.

dbo:abstract Les hiéroglyphes olmèques forment un système d'écriture pictographique remontant à au moins aux années 650 av. J.-C., utilisé par la civilisation olmèque. Caterina Magni évoque l'existence de glyphes, notamment sur la Stèle 13 de La Venta. Elle signale l'existence d'un cylindre-sceau provenant de Tlatilco remontant à 650 av. J.-C. témoignant déjà selon certains scientifiques de l'existence d'une forme d'écriture. Puis avec la découverte de la Stèle de Cascajal on peut penser que les spécialistes vont s'accorder à reconnaître que l'écriture est enfin identifiable dans la culture olmèque. Même si certains archéologues, à l'instar de David Grove et ou , restent sceptiques sur l'authenticité de la stèle. En outre, la stèle C de Tres Zapotes, une des plus anciennes qui soient connues à ce jour, recourt à une graphie analogue à celle qu'adopteront plus tard les Mayas pour les chiffres (un point = 1, et une barre = 5). L'inscription évoquerait une date correspondant à 425 ou 432 av. J.-C.

The existence of a writing system in Middle and Late Olmec periods has been a matter of long-standing debate. Direct evidence includes the appearance of individual (potential) glyphs as well as the singleton Cascajal Block that bears a potential text. Indirect evidence includes similarities in calendar and writing systems between subsequent Mesoamerican cultures, for which the Olmecs are sometimes considered a mother culture. (en)
