The paintings are set over three different rock shelters, with the largest, known as Cerro Azul, home to 12 panels and thousands of individual pictographs. Located in the Serranía La Lindosa in modern-day Colombia, the rock art shows how the earliest human inhabitants of the area would have coexisted with Ice Age megafauna, with pictures showing what appear to be giant sloths, mastodons, camelids, horses and three-toed ungulates with trunks. https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/amazon-rainforest-ice-age-paintings-scli-intl/index.html

Paintings from 11,800-12,600 years ago. Those other prehistoric paintings were from the south side of the Mediterranean.
