The Levi Rock Shelter, named for former property owner Malcolm Levi, is an archeological site west of Austin, Texas where Paleo-Indian Native American artifacts dating back 10,000 years or more have been discovered.

Located along Lick Creek, the site was discovered in the mid-1950s and is believed to be the 7th-oldest

The site, and its adjoining creek, are believed by local activists to be threatened by nearby development.^[1] The shelter was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
