In the article the Stone Age materials obtained by the Russian archaeological expedition (CES RAS) in Fayum (Egypt) are published. Technical and typological analysis of the flint artefacts within the geomorphological context of surface scatters suggests attribution of the discussed collection to the long period from the Lower Palaeolithic to the boundary of Middle Stone Age and Upper Palaeolithic.

Keywords:
