Teal'c and the Olmec Heads


August 11, 2022

I've never felt a connection to Mesoamerica until I created a file about the Olmec Civilization - the first signs of a complex society in an ancient Pre-Columbian civilization living in the tropical lowlands of south-central Mexico, in what are roughly the modern-day states of Veracruz and Tabasco.

I love stories about First Civilizations - namely the Zep Tepi - but the Olmec stood out from the violent societies that were part of the ancient Mesoamerican landscape.

Then there was this ... as a fan of Stargate SG 1 - I immediately noticed a connection of the Olmec heads to an alien named Teal'c. The series draws upon Egyptian, Greek and Norse mythology, as well as the legend of King Arthur but little about Mesoamerica. S3 Ep21 "Crystal Skull"

The Teal'c connection remains alien to me. Indeed.
