Answer:

The right option is OLMEC.

Explanation:

The Olmec were the first civilized people that developed in Mesoamerica. They flourished between 1200 B.C. and 400 B.C. They are considered to be the mother culture in the region.

The cause of their eventual extinction has not been determined by experts yet. However, as Olmec were farmers, environmental changes might have been the reasons for their depopulation.
