First things first.

How was this information obtained?

Assume you have never seen a carpenter’s workshop before, you are not even a human being to understand the concepts of carpentry. You are in the middle of this workshop trying to guess which is what.

With good guesses and lots of assumptions, you may arrive at a conclusion couple of decades later. But what if you can find that carpenter and have a conversation? This is how the insights about the Olmecs were obtained, with that being said, however, the information is as is, you use it at your own discretion.

Question: Maybe you could start telling us about their appearance in general compared to us?

Answer: We were not so different from you in many ways, except in the interiors, our ways of thinking and emotions were very different from you. Most of us were of a heavy set and athletic build, this was because most of us who came here were warriors.
