The effects of the extended gauge sector present in the Littlest Higgs model in the reactions e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} f{bar f} and e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} Zh are examined. We find that the search reach at the 500 GeV ILC essentially covers the entire region where this model is relevant to the hierarchy proble and extends the reach of the LHC. In addition, we show that the ILC allows for an accurate determination of the model parameters, to the precision of a few percent, provided that the LHC measures the mass of the new heavy neutral gauge field.
