Abstract
Numerous eggs of Ascaris cf. lumbricoides have been discovered in pala eolithic sediments of the pictorial sanctuary of the Grande Grotte at Arcy-sur-Cure. The presence of this parasit specifically human during the upper Pleistocene open a new way of search about the knowledge of ancient populations.
