Mousteroid

Mousteroid was a culture occurring during the period 80,000 - 50,000 BP of Central, Southern and East Africa. Examples of this culture are the tool-industry of the Middle Paleolithic in West Africa,^[1][2] known from sites at Zenebi, Nigeria^[3] and Tiemassas in Senegal.^[4][5]

Dakar and Rufisque

The most important of the Western Senegal sites is Pte. de Fann in Dakar.^[6] Classified Mousteroid, indicating similarities to industry Mousterian in form but neither akin to, nor at a temporal parallel. Other sites about Dakar and Rufisque, were part of a culture that had not occurred for sufficient duration for tools to be found at differing depths in the ground (without stratification).^[7]
