NOTE ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF THE PLATFORM OF THE FLAKE

本文分析了中国旧石器时代常见的石片台面的主要类型,提出两种世人不太注意的类型:有疤台面和刃状台面。

The present article deals with main types of platforms of flakes so far found in Chinese Paleolithic industries. Two nearly neglected types of platforms are presented. The cutting platform is similar to the null platform but more cutting and its adjacent dorsal surafce bears usually flake soars rather than the cortex. This type can be observed on typical bipolar flakes known in the Sinanthropus industry. The scarred platform resembles the plain platform except for having some little scars.
