As far back as 9,400 years ago, hunter-gatherers in what is now Brazil created dozens of stunning rock-art designs next to the fossilized footprints of dinosaurs, a new study finds.

The archaeological site, known as Serrote do Letreiro , is about 7 miles from the urban center of Sousa municipality in the northeastern state of Paraíba. It's close to the Valley of the Dinosaurs, a conservation area renowned for its hundreds of fossilized dinosaur footprints. Troiano and colleagues did the study with a group of middle-school students who went to the site in 2023. In addition to learning about paleontology and archaeology, the students helped photograph the fieldwork.
