The Rochelot cave is a prehistoric site located in the commune of Saint-Amant-de-Bonnieure in Charente, in the north of the Aquitaine Basin, about twenty kilometers northeast of Angoulême.

Six worn teeth of an aged Neanderthal and a fragment of humeral diaphysis marked with traces of hyena teeth were found.

The lithic industry is attributed to the Magdalenian.
