Listeros,

A large bas relief Olmec style monument called "Triad Cat" has been
uncovered at Chalcatzingo in Morelos by INAH. It is dated at 800 BCE.
The monument weighs a ton and a half, shows three felines. This is the
41st Olmec style monument found at the site. The felines are in
profile and facing west and each have different designs on their
heads.
INAH also announced that another large bas relief, "The Procession of
the Olmec Walkers," from the same time period as the Triad Cat can
finally be seen by the public. Restoration work was difficult.

INAH has the report here (in Spanish) with one of their excellent
slide shows of the monument. Click on the tiny "fotos" link at the top
