Situat a la vall del Lapedo, al municipi de Leiria, al centre de Portugal, aquest jaciment és un abric rocós datat del paleolític superior. El 1992 es començà a excavar el jaciment i hi descobriren restes arqueològiques del gravetià i del solutrià.A l'abril de 1999 es difongué un descobriment en aquest abric. Un esquelet humà pertanyent a un xiquet d'uns 4 anys, que s'hi enterrà deliberadament. L'esquelet, de 24.500 anys d'antiguitat, presentava una barreja de característiques d'humans moderns i de neandertals. Els autors del descobriment, Joâo Zilhâo, i l'expert en neandertals Erik Trinkaus opinaven que es tractava d'un híbrid.
