About a nickel.
The oldest statistical data I can locate doesn't have information earlier than 1913, but in 1913 the average loaf of bread was shown at 5.6 cents. This was as reported in <em>Historical Statistics of the United States: Colonial Times to 1970 (volume 2),</em> as published by the <span>U.S. Department of Commerce.</span>
Or, as another example, the Denver post reported that in 1912 Hurlbut's--which was then a grocery store in Denver--advertised "<span>six loaves of 'homemade' bread for 25 cents," which would work out as a special price less than 5 cents per loaf for the store's bakery bread.

Answer:
A. The Olmecs
Explanation:
The Olmec civilization was the first major civilization of the Mesoamerican region (1200-400 BCE). It had a full fledged religion with a large pantheon of Gods, an elaborate priesthood and well developed rituals. The civilizations that came later - the Aztecs, the Maya and the Incas were heavily influenced by the Olmec religion. This influence is evident in the shape of gods and the various rituals of the later civilizations.
