Ce mémoire présente l'étude du signal phytolithique de sédiments mio-pliocènes du Tchad(Afrique Centrale) datés entre 7-2 Ma, et contemporains des Homininés anciens Sahelanthropustchadensis et Australopithecus bahrelghazali. Une calibration de la relation plantes-phytolithes-solspour l'Afrique tropicale subsaharienne actuelle a d'abord été réalisée pour apprécier la signatureenvironnementale des phytolithes dans le registre fossile. L'analyse des assemblages phytolithiques de98 espèces de graminées (Poaceae) a permis d'élaborer trois nouveaux indices phytolithiques à partirde 43 types propres aux Poaceae. Testés sur une base de 57 sols/sédiments modernes du Tchad, cesindices permettent de tracer les associations graminéennes aquatiques du L...
