There are a number of problesm that must be resoloved in order to identify and delimit archaeological units of analysis that accurately correspond to past occupations. The general problem is to make operational definitions for concepts that are used and useful for intepretations about past human behavior or cultural systems. For the Cape Cod Archaeological Survey, an operational unit labeled "concentration" was used to subdivide archaeological site areas into smaller, more internally...
Uplands Complex Data, AZ U:8:530(ASM): Strata (1997)
The strata represent major natural or cultural depositional events such as erosional fill, roof fall, floor contexts, and sterile substrate. Strata are depicted as horizontal rows of interconnected boxes on a Harris Matrix. Within a feature, each stratum is designated by the feature number (e.g., 10, 11, 12, etc.) and a letter that designates a particular stratum (e.g., A, B, C). The letters are assigned in descending order. Mixed levels and artifacts collected out of context are designated by a...
