A stoneworking industry found in south and east Africa related to the late Acheulian, characterized by small pointed and neatly made handaxes, and named after a site in the Orange Free State. At Saldanha, Cape Province, Fauresmith artefacts were contemporary with fossil remains of Homo neanderthalis.
