If the photograph on the web page referred to is anything to go by
then the carving is very probably a fake. I don't know anything about
Olmec carvings or heads but I do know that lichen grows
indiscriminately on the surface of a rock and will not avoid the
incised lines in the way that is shown in the photograph.

Chaos is found in the greatest abundance wherever order is being
sought. It always defeats order, because it is better organised.
