The Archaeology & Petroglyphs of Coral Island
Rock Art of Santa Catarina Southern Brazil

Keler Lucas had arranged for a fisherman on the following day to take us to Coral Island, which is about 15 miles south of Santa Catarina, the same size as Campeche, and like Arvoredo has no beach on which to land. Unfortunately the wind had turned and we were advised that it would be impossible to get ashore, so I was unable to see these Petroglyphs.

On Coral Island are two important panels of similar size as those on Arvoredo. One of these panel was dynamited by the treasure seekers before 1960, so only fragments of the beautiful carving can now be seen in the jumble of rocks that cover the site.
