The Lagoa Santa region has attracted the attention of many researchers around the world since the 19th century, especially regarding its extensive osteological collection. Since the research carried out by Peter Lund, the interest in aspects such as the health and lifestyle of the Lagoa Santa groups has been growing, resulting in analyses that have contributed to understanding the lives of some of the oldest Paleoamericans in South America. The aim of the present study is to analyze the cross-sectional properties of the femur and humerus of a skeletal sample of Paleoamericans from Lagoa Santa, Minas Gerais, and, from this analysis, infer the levels of physical activity of these hunter-gatherers. In total, the Lagoa Santa sample consists of 52 femurs and 44 humeri, all belonging to adult individuals. Computed tomography was used to obtain images of the internal structure of the bones, without causing any damage to the bones. The analyses were performed using the ImageJ program and generated data regarding the variables TA, CA, Ix, Iy, Imax, Imin, Zx, Zy, Zp and J. In addition, groups of hunter-gatherers and farmers from 11 world regions were selected to compose a comparative sample. The results demonstrated that Lagoa Santa presents a high activity of the lower limbs, similar to other hunter-gatherers, with the results for the upper limb decreasing high asymmetry and sexual dimorphism. Therefore, the physical activity patterns observed in Lagoa Santa are aligned with those of hunter-gatherers and show bone adaptations that reflect a physically active life, while the use of the upper limbs suggests a difference in the activities performed by male and female groups.

High resolution GPR applied to the “Capela Pombo”
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-02-29) ESPEJO ZEBALLOS, Manuel Alejandro Junior; SILVA, Marcos Welby Correa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3213216758254128
In this work was applied electromagnetic method (GPR), to identify surface layers in a speci c urban environment. The measurements were performed to map the surface layers and artifacts that make up the study area "Capela de Nosso Senhor dos Passos - a Capela Pombo" in the Barrio of Campina-Bel em. This chapel has a previous work that rescues the importance y architectural features that it has, together with the evidence recollected by the author Dominic Savio de Castro Oliveira, who noted the historical importance that has not only to be the last private chapel in the city of Belém, this author also acknowledges her design as an Italian architect's work possible Guissepi Jos e Antonio Landi. The pro les obtained after corresponding processing procedure, show that this probably presences of structures, rest of the previous building structure, which previously was in this space. The study aimed to identify anomalies. The study aimed to identify structural abnormalities, as well as possible characteristic burials of the time when it was actively used. The results of the GPR measurements were encouraging, since the method presented response of approximately 1.80 meters deep, one can identify anomalies control for the reasons as presented Chapel, and present possible anomalies related to structural foreign bodies.

Riquezas da Terra: paisagens e ocupaçõesn Serra Leste de Carajás
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-04-05) SILVA, Tallyta Suenny Araujo da; BELTRÃO, Jane Felipe; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6647582671406048; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2113-043X
This work investigated the human occupations and the changes in the landscape caused by them considering the long duration of this process of dwelling. To carry out the thesis presented here, three moments were chosen: (1) the occupation in cavities, specifically those occurred at CECAV-047: Tyto Alba and CECAV-079: Samambaia do Inferno; (2) the occupation of the open-air site: Serra Leste 1; and (3) the recent occupation of the Serra Pelada, mining that started in 1980, in the current city of Curionópolis. The recent occupation linked to the mineral exploitation has caused great transformations in the landscape, producing new records and affecting those left at other times. An integrated analysis of the different moments of dwelling in Serra Leste de Carajás aimed to highlight the importance of each occupation as forming new local landscape, modified according to the social relationships maintained by people with the spaces they dwelled and still dwell according to the exploration and use of “wealth from the earth".

O uso da pintura rupestre da região amazônica como fonte histórica: uma possibilidade na disciplina História no sexto ano
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-03-07) CASTRO, Rafael Printes Albarelli de; BASTOS, Carlos Augusto de Castro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5957760591235451
This research had as objective to present the experience lived in the State School of Elementary Education "Professor Waldemar de Freitas Ribeiro", in the municipality of Belém, capital of the state of Pará, of how to work with a historical source, which in most cases is in the didactic manuals or outside them, the historians leave much to the margin: the rock painting, especially those of the Amazon region. The survey involved the single morning class and the three afternoon classes of the sixth year of elementary school. In order to achieve better analyzes and results with the use of rock paintings, a strong approach was sought with Archeology. In order to detect students' understanding of rock painting, a questionnaire was applied consisting of four questions (before and after the application of the rock paintings production workshop). The execution of a rock paintings production workshop was presented as one of the highlights of this research. This strategy of using rock painting aims to help students to take another look at "Prehistory", about human beings who lived in this period, and also the so-called rupestrian painting (being much more characterized as a historical source).
