Piauí
Ancient fossils and spectacular tablelands
Piauí is one of Brazil's least-visited yet most archaeologically rich states, home to the Serra da Capivara National Park — a UNESCO site containing rock paintings and evidence of human presence in the Americas dating back over 50,000 years. The state's dramatic tablelands (chapadas) and seasonal wetlands make it a destination for adventurous travelers seeking ancient landscapes off the beaten path.
