  • Transforming skeletal data into visual form: A digital facial depiction of “Zuzu”, an early Holocene individual from Brazil

    Open AccessLumila Paula Menéndez, A Solari et al.ARTICLEAnthropologiai Közlemények2026

    work with and share data, making it possible to create detailed visualizations of people from the past. Among these, facial depiction based on skeletal remains are particularly powerful, but they also come with important challenges. Faces are easily read as “real” and can give a stronger sense of certainty than the underlying evidence actually supports. Objective: This work presents a digital facial depiction of “Zuzu,” an early Holocene individu…

  • New Data on a Pleistocene Archaeological Sequence in South America: Toca do Sítio do Meio, Piauí, Brazil

    Eric Boëda, Roxane Rocca et al.ARTICLEPaleoAmerica2016

    Sítio do Meio, discovered in the 1990s, showed a sedimentary sequence clearly composed of two sets of deposits separated by a zone of large rockfall from the massive collapse of the shelter's overhang. The bottom set, slightly more than 60 cm thick, was trapped between the bedrock (upon which it rested) and the lower part of the roof fall (reaching more than 1 m in the excavation area), and yielded some charcoal without other archaeological mater…

  • A new late Pleistocene archaeological sequence in South America: The Vale da Pedra Furada (Piauí, Brazil)

    Open AccessEric Boëda, Ignacio Clemente-Conte et al.ARTICLEAntiquity2014Cited by: 59References: 24

    The date of the first settlement of the Americas remains a contentious subject. Previous claims for very early occupation at Pedra Furada in Brazil were not universally accepted (see Meltzeret al.1994). New work at the rockshelter of Boqueirão da Pedra Furada and at the nearby open-air site of Vale da Pedra Furada have however produced new evidence for human occupation extending back more than 20 000 years. The argument is supported by a series o…

  • Chronologie des peintures rupestres du Parc National Serra da Capivara (Brésil)

    Open AccessNiede Guidon, Gabriela Martins et al.ARTICLEPalethnologie2013

    En 1973, des sites à peintures rupestres ont été découverts dans le sud-est de l’État du Piauí. Dans une région très accidentée, un ensemble de plateaux gréseux surplombe la plaine sur environ 200 km2 selon la direction sud‐ouest / nord‐ouest. C’est l’une des régions les plus pauvres du Brésil, semi-aride, avec une couverture végétale typique, la caatinga, mot indien qui signifie « forêt blanche ». Ces sites, en raison de leur importance archéolo…

  • Chronology of the Rock Paintings in the Serra da Capivara National Park (Brazil)

    Open AccessNiede Guidon, Gabriela Martins et al.ARTICLEPalethnologie2013

    In 1973, sites with rock paintings were discovered in the southeastern part of the State of Piauí. In a very uneven terrain, a group of sandy plateaus overlooks a plain covering approximately 200 km2 following a south‐west / north‐west direction. This is one of the poorest regions of Brazil. It is semi-arid, with a typical vegetal cover called “caatinga”, which is the Indian word for “white forest”. Due to their archaeological importance, these s…

  • Serra da Capivara National Park, Brazil: Cultural Heritage and Society

    Anne Marie Pessis, Anne-Marie Pessis et al.ARTICLEWorld Archaeology2007Cited by: 3References: 1

    The Serra da Capivara National Park was created in 1979 in order to protect the existing archaeological sites (more than 900). During its first ten years federal officials were lax concerning the commitments that had been assumed. The consequence was a devastating environmental impact on the archaeological heritage. Looking for a solution in 1986 FUMDHAM was created to implement the protection of the archaeological heritage and to ensure the cont…
