Functional analyses of Lower and Middle Palaeolithic lithic assemblages, from caves or open-air sites, show that different typological categories were frequently used on wood. Microwear study of finds from the Mousterian site of Hermies-le Champ Bruquette (northern France) resulted in the identification, on flint artefacts from a disturbed zone, of post-depositional micropolish similar to polish created by wood-working. The location of these artefacts in a tundra gley altered by gelifluxion led us to experiment the effects of ice on flint. This research has revealed similarities between ice polish and wood polish. This paper describes preliminary experiments using modern replicas of flint flakes. The data from the site at Hermies suggest th...
