Community archeology project

Started in 2012, through a research project coordinated by Professor Denise Schaan, the Program carried out workshops in primary and secondary schools in the municipality of Senador Guiomard, in the state of Acre. The events had as objective to discuss the musealization of the Geoglifo do Tequinho with the community around the archaeological site, especially students and teachers of the neighborhood schools. The project has a partnership with the Brazilian Society of Archeology (SAB), CNPq and the State Government of Acre. At the moment, educational books for use in the schools are being produced.
