Roches gravées de la Montagne Favard, Prehistoric rock carvings in Régina, French Guiana

Roches gravées de la Montagne Favard, also called roche gravée de Kaw, is a carved rock in Régina measuring about two metres by one and a half metres. Its motifs were made by pecking and polishing the grey stone: concentric circles around a rough inner area, curved lines forming a grid with a cross, and clusters of loops. The shallow carvings appear darker than the surrounding surface.

The engraved rock was first recorded in a 1952 inventory and studied in an article published in 1974 in the journal Connaissance de la Guyane. It was listed on the supplementary inventory of monuments historiques by decree of 16 September 1991.

The site is also called roche gravée de Kaw, after the Kaw region around Régina. The motifs were made by pecking and polishing the stone, and among them are an anthropomorphic figure and two zoomorphic figures interpreted as snakes, one a boid and one a surucuru.

The site is located in the Régina area and can be reached using GPS coordinates or local directions. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and be prepared for uneven ground, since the rocks sit within natural surroundings.

The engraved surface measures about two metres by one and a half metres, worked by pecking and polishing.
