Plinth
From Greek, plinthos, meaning squared stone. Cognate of flint…whatever that means. But they share the PIE root of splint, to split.

Re: Plinth
One big difference being that flint gives off sparks when struck, plinths rarely do.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
