| [paleoparasitology: presumption of a case with bilharzia of the 15th century at montbéliard (doubs, france)]. | on the archeological site of montbéliard, paleoparasitological and sedimentological analysis of cesspit deposits led to the detection of well preserved parasitological forms (remains of helminths with associated eggs). the morphology and morphometry of these forms point to a plausible case of bilharzia transmitted by schistosoma haematobium. the chance of ancient or recent contamination of the sample is discussed. | 1995 | 7583769 |
