During the Middle Pleistocene, the Early Paleolithic culture, indicated by the hand axe, flourished in Europe, Africa and parts of Asia. Since the 19th century, it has been classified as the Chelles culture, which had crude hand axes, and the Acheulean culture, which produced more advanced stone tools, named after two type sites in France. However, it was later discovered that the stone tools at the Chelles sites were mainly from the Acheulean culture, and the term Chelles culture was replaced in Europe with the Abbeville culture, named after a site on the banks of the Somme.

ヨーロッパ,アフリカおよびアジアの一部では,中部更新世のころ,ハンド・アックスを指標とする前期旧石器文化が栄えていた。19世紀以来,フランスの二つの標式遺跡にちなんで,その前半は粗製のハンド・アックスをもつシェルChelles文化,後半はより発達した石器を作り出したアシュール文化として区分されてきた。しかしその後,シェル遺跡の石器はアシュール文化のものが主体を占めていることが明らかになり,シェル文化の用語は,ヨーロッパではソンム河岸の遺跡名をとってアブビル文化に置き換えられた。
