LINUX - How to delete files more than 10 weeks old

Hi All,

Can you pls let me know any script/command by which I can delete the files from the Archive directory which is more than 10 weeks older from the day the batch is executed. ie if I pass today's date, it should go & delete the files older than 10 weeks from now from the archive directory.

Any thoughts will be very helpful.

Thanks in advance
Freddie
