Here is the actual link to the Olmec Fish Effigy Vessels:
http://www.rose-hulman.edu/~delacova/fish-effigy-vessels.htm
I saved a couple of these images to file and will put a link to this page on
my Pre-
Columbian Ceramics page.
Here is the URL for more information on the Olmec:
http://www.rose-hulman.edu/~delacova/olmecs.htm

I have also added links to the home page for Latin American Studies from
Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology to my page on Pre-Columbian art and
America's Diversity. Lots to see.

Thanks for posting the link Frances.
