摘要：The Pontal do Triângulo Mineiro region has been the subject of many paleontological researches due to its great fossiliferous potential as demonstrated by numerous published studies. From this perspective, we observed the necessity of reviewing the pioneer paleontological studies in this area to analyze its data and historical facts, which could corroborate the following studies on this area. This thus elucidates the importance of knowing the local Geology and Paleontology by also accessing its historical context. This method significantly contributes to the continuation of the research on Upper Cretaceous deposits of the Pontal do Triângulo Mineiro region.
