constructed giant stone monuments.
- I think this would be the correct answer: they built Colossal Heads around twice twice the size of people.

built pyramids out of blocks of stone.
- no, their pyramids were rather made of clay.

developed a writing system with pictographs.- yes, they did. But the Mayas developed it further to a full script- yet, the Olmecs did have a photographic script


created a system of numbers that included zero - we can find 0s in their writing system, so yes!
