Caverna da Pedra Pintada (Painted Rock Cave), is an archaeological site in northern Brazil with evidence of human presence dating ca.

[2] Caverna da Pedra Pintada is located near the town of Monte Alegre, in the Amazon River Basin in Pará state in northern Brazil.

The existence of distinct cultures east of the Andes suggests that North American big-game hunters were not the sole source of migration into South America.

"[1]The lowest levels of the cave yield charred floral and faunal remains and stone tools, including spear points, suggesting that the earliest visitors were hunter-gatherers in the humid tropical environment.

These Paleoindians used the cave frequently over a span of 1,200 years, leaving remains of fruits, and seeds, including Brazil nuts; as well as fish, birds, reptiles, shellfish, and amphibians.
