Now, there are also archaeological treasures: more than a thousand figures on 277 rock walls at 52 archaeological sites, painted by Indigenous people hundreds of years ago. The cave paintings were cataloged by the University Group for Speleological Research (GUPE) from the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG). The group has more than 14,000 high-resolution photographs of the paintings, which include, in order from most common to least: incomplete figures and markings, geometric shapes, animals, people, plants, and handprints. \u201cLearning about our past is a way to preserve our most primitive history, the roots of human occupation in Ponta Grossa and the region, and the history of the first people who lived here,\u201d said UEPG geologist La\u00eds Luana Massuqueto in a university statement (UEPG website, December 5, 2023).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Region of Paran\u00e1 is home to archaeological treasures, with more than a thousand figures painted by Indigenous peoples","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1651],"tags":[202,240],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-515895","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-notes","tag-archaeology","tag-geology"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/515895","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=515895"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/515895\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":515904,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/515895\/revisions\/515904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=515895"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=515895"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=515895"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=515895"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
