Some quantitative methods applied to flake‐measuring problems

This article presents a continuation of the work in flint flake analysis, the earlier phases of which were described in this journal in 1968 and 1969. Non‐tool flint material from additional excavated Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age settlement sites in West Sweden has been coded and measured. Together with parts of the material used previously it is here subjected to analysis by three different methods. Thereafter these methods are compared and examined as to their results in the light of archaeological experience. The outcome of this concluding evaluation is so positive that work will be continued with a larger material.
