I actually challenge you to post a PICTURE of the supposed brick. [QUOTE]We know the name of the Olmec from the Maya. Landa noted that the Yucatec Maya claimed that they got writing from a group of foreigners called Tutul Xiu from Nonoulco (Tozzer, 1941). [/QUOTE]Nice try. The Tutul Xiu was a Mayan ruling family. [QUOTE]The Olmec originated writing in Mexico., so we can assume that the term Tutul Xiu refer to the Olmec.[/QUOTE]No evidence that the Olmec had writing as of yet. Nor that they preceded the Maya s in writing. [QUOTE]The Tutul Xi were probably Olmecs.[/QUOTE]Oh now its Xi, What happened to Xiu? And no evidence of Tutul in Mande. [/qb][/QUOTE]Everyone accepts the fact that the Olmec had writing since the discovery of the Andres stamp seal (c 500 BC+). Moreover, there are numerous inscribed Olmec artifacts that record and document calendar dates. Clearly the Maya got their writing from the Olmecs. Please provide the evidence that Tutul can not be read in Mande languages. Please explain how Landa claims the Tutul Xiu were foriegners--and you calim they were Maya. You can find the Comalcalco bricks here: Steede. Neil; "The Bricks of Comalcalco," Ancient American, 1:8, September/October 1994. 2. Fell, Barry; "The Comalcalco Bricks: Part 1, the Roman Phase," Occasional Papers, Epigraphic Society, 19:299, 1990. The -u, is the plural element in Olmec. Singular is Xi, that's why we call the Olmec Xi to signify the individual Olmec person. . [/QB][/QUOTE]
