Este trabalho descreve marcas encontradas em fósseis de mamíferos pleistocênicos do Sítio Lagoa da Pedra, que fica localizado no distrito de Conceição das Creoulas, identificando possíveis relações temporais e/ou físicas entre os grupos pré-históricos e a megafauna que coabitou a região nordeste do Brasil, em Salgueiro - PE, no Pleistoceno Final - Holoceno Inicial. A metodologia aplicada, utilizando microscópio estereoscópico, identificou fósseis que apresentam marcas que foram possivelmente causadas por instrumentos líticos. O trabalho apresenta indícios de interação homem-megafauna através da caça desses animais, reforçando evidências já existentes sobre a coabitação durante o final do Pleistoceno e início do Holoceno.BRANDS ON MEGAFAUNA FOSSILS IN LAGOA DA PEDRA, SALGUEIRO-PE, BRAZIL ABSTRACTThis work describes marks found on fossil mammals of the Pleistocene Lagoa da Pedra Site, which is located in the Conceição das Creoulas district, identifying possible temporal and / or physical relationships between prehistoric groups and the megafauna that cohabitated the northeast region of Brazil. , in Salgueiro - PE, in the Late Pleistocene - Early Holocene. The applied methodology, using stereoscopic microscope, identified fossils presenting marks that were possibly caused by lithic instruments. This work presents evidence of human-megafauna interaction through hunting of these animals, reinforcing existing evidence on cohabitation during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene.Keywords: Quaternary; marks; fossils; pleistocene mammals; megamammals.

Late Pleistocene fossils have been recovered sporadically in the Edmonton area, in central Alberta, for many years but there has been little work in determining their age. Fossils from quarries in North Saskatchewan River terraces and buried valley gravels are recognized as Late Pleistocene (mid-Wisconsinan) and early Holocene taxa, and numerous 14C dates on mammalian remains now support the assessment. The mammalian fauna consists of at least 16 taxa, including mostly grazing herbivores, but also three carnivores: Canis cf. Canis lupus (gray wolf), Arctodus simus (giant short-faced bear), and Panthera leo atrox (Pleistocene lion). The carnivores are first records for the region, and Arctodus is a first record for Alberta.
