摘要：Tabon Cave yielded occupation layers spanning from the Upper Palaeolithic to the Neolithic. Our interest focused on the stone artefacts: What can they tell us about the activities that took place in the cave many thousands of years ago? To identify and understand the use damages on archaeological pieces, a series of experiments was conducted, adapted to the tropical environment and to the raw material of many of the artefacts from Tabon. The archaeological material analysis emphasizes the vegetal resources exploitation by prehistoric groups who stayed at Tabon Cave and a short-term use of the tools.
