About

The cave of La Roche-au-Loup is a prehistoric site located in Merry-sur-Yonne, Yonne, Burgundy, France. Its deposits of the Middle and Upper Paleolithic, its wildlife richness and its position at the junction between the Alpine zone and the North European plain make it a notable site. It was occupied in the Châtelperronien, a rare fact north of the Loire, and in the final bronze. It is also remarkable for some of its objects of the Châtelperronien which demonstrate a choice of both psychological and functional nature.
