Abstract: We prove that the ramified Prym map $\mathcal P_{g, r}$ which sends a covering $\pi :D\longrightarrow C$ ramified in $r$ points to the Prym variety $P(\pi )≔Ker(Nm_{\pi })$ is an embedding for all $r\ge 6$ and for all $g(C)>0$. Moreover, by studying the restriction to the locus of coverings of hyperelliptic curves, we show that $\mathcal P_{g, 2}$ and $\mathcal P_{g, 4}$ have positive dimensional fibers.
