Head of Olmec Graphic Tee – Cultural & Ancient Olmec T-Shirt

Inspired by the Legendary Olmec Civilization

The Head of Olmec line from our “Of Olmec” collection takes its direct inspiration from the monumental 10- to 40-ton stone heads of Mexico—iconic masterpieces that define the legacy of the ancient Olmec civilization. These colossal sculptures continue to influence conversations about America’s earliest advanced cultures, admired for their precision, presence, and timeless mystery. This Olmec T-shirt captures that same bold energy and symbolism.

The Origins Behind the Vision

Influence of Scholarship & Hip-Hop Culture

My introduction to the Olmec began with the work of Dr. Ivan Van Sertima, whose scholarship reshaped how many of us understand ancient global connections. I first encountered his name through the thought-provoking lyrics of Nasir Jones (NAS) in the song “We’re Not Alone.” Hearing Van Sertima referenced with such depth led me to explore his writings—and the moment I opened one of his books, the vision for the Of Olmec collection took root, inspiring this Olmec head t-shirt.
