It is shown that the theta functions of level n on the principally polarised Prym varieties of an algebraic curve are dual to the sections of the orthogonal theta line bundle on the moduli space of Spin( n )‐bundles over the curve. As a by‐product of our computations, we also note that when n is odd, the Pfaffian line bundle on moduli space has a basis of sections labelled by the even theta characteristics of the curve. 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification : 14D20, 14H42, 14H60, 14K25.
