The Amazon region, in Brazil, has the recognized natural heritage, but other ecosystems have occupied the region and are recorded in rocks, such as the Pirabas Formation, in the coastal region of Pará, Atalaia beach (Salinópolis). The fossils of these rocks have transformative social potential when well enjoyed. And we searched in websites, libraries and 150 interviews, knowledge related to these, to problematize, from different areas, the (re) knowledge of this patrimony in the region. There are weaknesses in the relationship between academic information and how it is made available to the public, thus hindering the preservation and social use of fossils. However, we suggest public policies and a museum in the municipality, as actions that can minimize this situation.
