The Cavern Clan (Piteco) is a Brazilian comic strip created in 1961 by Mauricio de Sousa.

It centers around a prehistoric tribe in the Stone Age and depicts them living in the presence of dinosaurs.

Most of the stories feature Pitheco hunting dinosaurs, running away from Tooga, or even his friends and he fighting against other village's people.

Pitheco has also made a cameo in the fourth issue of Monica Teen; he appears as a statue at a museum that comes alive after a spell used by Captain Fray.

In 2009, the character gets new version on the graphic novel MSP 50: in a story by the comic artist Flávio Luiz, he meets the Astronaut.
