**Spelunca Spirituum** sive lingua Thai ถ้ำผีแมน *Tham Phii Man* est caverna et locus archaeologicus provinciae Mae Hong Son Thailandiae boreo-occidentalis. Caverna ab hominibus culturae Hoabinhianae frequentata est inter annos circiter 15 199 et 7 666 a.p. iterum multo recentius inter 3 356 et 3 061 a.p.

Ossa animalium, praesertim ab incolis periodo antiquiore ad cibum captorum, quorum plurima cocta vel combusta, reperta sunt: *Indochinamon* sp. *Margaritifera laosensis*, *Cyclophorus* sp. *Sus* sp. *Muntiacus* sp. *Axis porcinus*, *Rusa unicolor*, *Ratufa* sp. *Lutra* sp. *Arctictis binturong*, *Felis* sp. *Hylobates lar*, *Macaca* sp. *Nycticebus* sp. aliaque ad genera haud certe attributa. Recentius recognita sunt *Indotestudo elongata*, *Siebenrockiella crassicollis*, *Lepus *cf.* peguensis*, Phasianidarum fortasse *Gallus gallus*; sed praeterea *Hipposideros larvatus* et *Hipposideros bicolor*, quae vespertiliones cavernas sine habitatione hominum frequentare censentur, unde satis constat cavernam non continuo habitatam esse.

Vestigia plantarum quibus incolae ut videtur periodo antiquiore utebantur reperta sunt *Lagenaria siceraria*, *Areca* sp. *Canarium* sp. *Aleurites* sp. *Prunus* sp. insuper pauca *Piper* sp. *Cucumis* sp. *Pisum* sp.?, *Glycine* sp.?, *Vicia* sp.?, *Madhuca* sp. *Trapa* sp. *Terminalia* sp. *Trapa* et legumina ad victualia fortasse culta, nuces et fructus ad cibum, *Piper* ad condimentum, *Areca* sicut stimulans collecta esse proponitur.
