Descrição
Resumo:This article is a reflection on the cave paintings of the Northeast tradition in the archaeological region of Seridó, which still need detailed studies of their vast archaeological collection. It can be said that, in parallel to the paintings in the Serra da Capivara National Park in the state of Piauí, the rock paintings ensembles of Seridó represent the largest graphic heritage in the northeast of Brazil. This statement is not just based on the number of sites and records, but on the wealth of images that they represent. They portray the numerous activities of the daily and ceremonial life of the peoples who did them, as well as the manifestation of the material, immaterial and technical culture of indigenous abstract thought in Brazilian prehistory.
