Bukit Jawa is an archaeological site with traces of Palaeolithic culture. It was discovered by archaeologist from Universiti Sains Malaysia, and research was carried out in 1996. 

A mapping of the environment around Kota Tampan was carried out, resulting in the discovery of a possible site at Bukit Jawa. From the findings, sediments at the river bed indicated a pre-historic community settlement, circa 100,000 – 200, 000 years ago.
