The Sangoan industry is the name given by archaeologists to a Palaeolithic tool manufacturing style which may have developed from the earlier Acheulian types. In addition to the Acheulian stone tools, use was also made of bone and antler picks.

It is broadly analogous to the Mousterian culture in Europe.

It is named after the site of Sango Bay in Uganda where it was first discerned in 1920.
