Olmec hand necklace

Olmec hand, olmec symbol necklace in sterling silver

The "Olmec Hand" pendant reflects a fascinating era in history, that of the Olmecs, a revered Mexican civilization regarded as the progenitor of the great Mesoamerican cultures that followed.

The Olmecs thrived between 2500 BCE and 500 BCE along the Gulf Coast of Mexico, in the Basin of Mexico, and along the Pacific Coast. Their influence extended far beyond their borders, leaving behind a cultural and artistic legacy of unparalleled depth.

The seal depicted on this pendant is a faithful reproduction of an Olmec stamp, showcasing a hand inscribed within a circle adorned with geometric patterns. These motifs, consisting of "V" shapes and circles, captivate with their simplicity and mysterious symbolism.

In Pre-Hispanic cultures, the hand held deep significance, oscillating between creation and destruction, life and death. Regarded as a symbol of creative power due to its ability to build, it was also associated with the capacity to destroy, making it a symbol of death in some beliefs.

This Olmec pendant serves as a link to a bygone era, paying homage to the cultural and artistic richness of the Olmecs. For enthusiasts of Pre-Hispanic history and Mexican archaeology, it is a treasure to cherish, a tangible reminder of our shared heritage and the depth of our history.
