Ancient Mine or Quarry in Amazonas, Brazil.
Lithic finds in sediments dated from 5000 BC onwards. This is one of the few sites in the Manaus area with exposed stone with the right properties for making tools.

Blanks and worn or "abandoned" tools such as projectile points, scrapers and axes have been found. The location is roughly approximate.
