Abstract: In the present paper two fossil human teeth and 12 pieces of stone artifacts found in Baojiyan Cave in 1979 are described. They were unearthed from the grey-yellow deposits, associated with the " Ailuropoda-stegodon Fauna". It was the first time human fossils and chipped artifacts had been found together with this fauna in Guangxi. They are dated to Upper Pleistocene. This finding is of some significance on the paleolithic cultural context in Guangxi.

Key words: Late Homo sapiens; Chipped artifact; Ailuropoda-Stegodon Fauna
