  abstract = {{T}he study of prehistoric sites with lithic remains indicates that the occupation of continental {A}sia, notably {I}ndia and {C}hina, seems to have taken place earlier than previously thought. {H}owever, this {E}arly {P}leistocene human dispersal out of {A}frica remains debatable for the {S}outheast of {A}sia, in spite of the discovery of original lithic assemblages on the {M}ekong terraces dated to the very beginning of the {M}iddle {P}leistocene in the centre of {C}ambodia, by {S}aurin and {C}arbonnel in the 1960-1970s. {A}lthough this fundamental lithic material has become a reference, it has not been subjected to renewed study of these artefacts over the past decades, and it is thus not possible, for the moment, to attribute it with certainty to a particular culture. {I}n this paper, we present an analysis of the raw materials and a techno-typological study of a similar series of prehistoric tools gathered by one of us in order to bring to light new elements concerning the first {P}alaeolithic occupation of this region of the world.},
