Há 10 Mil Anos Atrás (Portuguese for 10 Thousand Years Ago) is the fourth studio solo album by Brazilian singer Raul Seixas. It was released in 1976.

Background

Há 10 Mil Anos Atrás features more mystical and introspective songs than Raul's previous albums, such as "Canto para Minha Morte", "O Homem" and "Eu Nasci Há 10 Mil Anos Atrás". However, happier songs are present as well, such as "Os Números", "Eu Também Vou Reclamar" and "O Dia da Saudade". Also present in the album is an alternate, more electric guitar-oriented version of "As Minas do Rei Salomão", a track originally present in Raul Seixas' debut album.

It was the last album of Raul Seixas to feature Paulo Coelho as his songwriting partner (although they would reunite in 1978 to record Mata Virgem), and his last album to be released under the Philips/Phonogram label.
