El Museo Tuxteco

This museum has a collection of Olmec artifacts among other things, including the remains of a real Olmec Indian skull.

Reviewed By thomassQ6285WA

In Santiago Tuxtla, right on the pleasant town square , this museum has an remarkable collection of antique olmec pieces including possibly the nicest of all known olmec stone heads . Beyond that, the museum has an eclectic set of pieces from other regions of Mexico reaching all the way to the north with nice pottery from the Casas Grandes region; this indicates taht one or more private collections must have been donated to this museum. Together with eh huge Olmec head on the town square, the nice setting and surrounding landscape, this makes for a very worth while detour on the way to or from the south and southeast!
