Coprolites as paleoarchives for the study of hunter-fisher-gatherer groups (Dnieper-Dvina region, 4-3rd mill BC)
The way to a human’s past is through their intestine - reconstructing diet and hygiene through paleoparasitological analysis at Lubelska 72A Street, Chełm (East Poland), in the 17th-19th century
Paleoparasitological analysis was conducted on soil samples from the sacral regions of human remains recovered during archaeological excavations at 72 A Lubelska Street in Chełm (Lublin Voivodeship, eastern Poland) dated to the 17th-19th century. The study yielded the most extensive dataset of its kind from the Early Modern period in the region. A total of 100 individuals—children, adolescents, and adults—were examined, and all samples tested pos…

Paleoparasitological evidence of helminth infections in individuals from two Late Iron Age necropolises in Northern Italy (3rd-1st c. BCE)
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the presence of digestive macroparasites (helminths) in human remains from the Late Iron Age (3rd-1st c. BCE) in northern Italy (Verona province). MATERIALS: Pelvic soil samples and control samples from the skull or foot areas of 55 individuals from the necropolises of Seminario Vescovile (n = 45) and Povegliano Veronese (n = 10). METHODS: All samples were examined using brightfield optical microscopy. In addition, soil sample…

Apport de la paléoparasitologie à l'étude de la nécropole médiévale En Condémines à Saint-Maurice d'Agaune, Valais (Suisse)
La paléoparasitologie constitue aujourd’hui un outil solide pour compléter les connaissances des sociétés du passé en fournissant des preuves directes d’infection à travers les marqueurs parasitaires. La piste paléoparasitologique a été intégrée à l’étude de la nécropole médiévale En Condémines (VIe-XIIIe siècles) de Saint-Maurice d’Agaune en Suisse. L’objectif était de tenter de compléter et d’approfondir nos connaissances sur les modes de fonct…
Evidencia paleoparasitológica de Ascaris lumbricoides en restos esqueletizados de época romana de Dianium (Alicante, España)
El hallazgo de parásitos procedentes de contextos arqueológicos nos permite conocer las condiciones socio-económicas y los hábitos alimentarios de las poblaciones pasadas, aportando una visión novedosa en el estudio de dichas sociedades. Pese a su probado interés en la contribución al conocimiento de los estudios arqueológicos, antropológicos y biológicos, apenas se han llevado a cabo investigaciones paleoparasitológicas en España. Este trabajo p…
First contribution of paleoparasitology to the study of coprolites from the Neolithic site Serteya II (NW Russia)
Ancient parasites from a peat bog
This paper presents an original palaeoparasitological study performed on samples from a sedimentary core in a peat bog (Asi Gonia, White Mountains, Crete, Greece). The aim of the study is to test the preservation and concentration of parasitic remains in peat sediments, to discuss animal presence around the site throughout the record, and to compare the results with other biomarkers of environmental history. In this aim, 22 sediment samples distr…
Multi-proxy analysis of waterlogged preserved Late Neolithic canine excrements
Camelid Gastrointestinal Parasites from the Archaeological Site of Huanchaquito (Peru)
Palaeoparasitological investigation was conducted on a first set of samples from 13 sacrificed domestic camelids recovered from the pre-Hispanic Chimú culture site of Huanchaquito-Las Llamas, Peru. The aim was to establish the animals’ gastrointestinal parasite diversity and enlighten on their health status at the time of their death. To this end, 20 samples of coprolites and intestinal contents were analysed to check for the presence of parasite…
Spatializing data in paleoparasitology
Paleoparasitological investigations were carried out on 124 sediment samples from the Swiss Neolithic lakeside settlement of Zürich-Parkhaus-Opéra (layer 13, 3176–3153 years BCE). Analyses revealed the presence of several taxa of human and/or animal gastrointestinal parasites, including whipworm (genus Trichuris), capillariids, tapeworms ( Taenia/Echinococcus and Diphyllobothrium genera) and flukes ( Fasciola and Paramphistomum genera). Owing to …
A Multidisciplinary Approach to Neolithic Life Reconstruction
The expansion of Neolithic stable isotope studies in France now allows distinct regional population-scale food patterns to be linked to both local environment influences and specific economic choices. Carbon and nitrogen isotope values of more than 500 humans and of animal samples also permit hypotheses on sex-biased human provenance. To advance population scale research, we here present the first study that draws together carbon (C), nitrogen (N…
Use of space and site formation processes in a Neolithic lakeside settlement. Pollen and non-pollen palynomorphs spatial analysis in La Draga (Banyoles, NE Iberia)
La paléoparasitologie
Introduction La paléoparasitologie étudie les parasites anciens dont les marqueurs préservés sont retrouvés dans les sites archéologiques et paléontologiques. Située à l’interface entre l’archéologie et la parasitologie, cette discipline fait aussi appel à des notions issues de l’anthropologie, de l’écologie et des sciences de la santé. De par cette pluridisciplinarité, la paléoparasitologie intéresse naturellement les sciences de l’homme mais el…
Paleoparasitological investigations on the Neolithic lakeside settlement of La Draga (Lake Banyoles, Spain)
Paleoparasitological analyses were conducted on samples from the Neolithic lakeside settlement of La Draga in Spain (5320–4980 BC). Conventional microscopic analysis revealed the presence of tapeworms (genus Taenia/Echinoccocus and Diphyllobothrium), roundworms (genus Trichuris, Capillaria, and Ascaris), rumen fluke (genus Paramphistomum), and Acanthocephalan (genus Macracanthorhynchus). In addition, genetic analysis demonstrated the presence of …

There has been evidence of dung in lakeside and moorland settlements since the beginning of wetland archaeology in the 19th century. While evidence has been found for the easily discernible faecal pellets of sheep and goats, recognition of cattle dung has proven to be considerably more difficult. In this study, we give an overview of evidence for dung remains in prehistoric wetland settlements in Germany, Switzerland and eastern France. Various m…
Ortadoğu'da Paleoparazi̇toloji̇
The study of ancient parasites, known as paleoparasitology, has considerably developed since it was initiated almost a century ago. The aim of this specific field of research is to contribute to our knowledge on tire way of life of ancient populations by documenting the history and the evolution of host-parasite relationship, paleopathology, diet, funerary practices, and cultures are some topics that can be enquired by working on preserved para…
