A stratified squamous epithelium consists of squamous (flattened) epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane.

Only one layer is in contact with the basement membrane; the other layers adhere to one another to maintain structural integrity

The lining of the mouth cavity is an example of an unkeratinized, stratified squamous epithelium. Stratified cuboidal epithelium and stratified columnar epithelium can also be found in certain glands and ducts, but are uncommon in the human body.
