DATASET Barbara Stark.

Obsidian from PALM 1 survey, form 1 variables, recorded by Lynette Heller. This file includes all Palm 1 survey years, including 1989, a project by Stuart Speaker.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

Obsidian from PALM 1 survey, recorded by Lynette Heller, variables on form 2. Palm survey 1986-1989.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

Obsidian from Palm 1 survey, recorded by Lynette Heller, variables on form 3. Includes all seasons of Palm survey, 1986-1989.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

Obsidian from Palm 1 survey, recorded by Lynette Heller, variables on form 4. Survey 1986-1989.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This dataset is non-relational, containing information about obsidian artifacts. The PALM 2 obsidian file was created by Lynette Heller, and it is only partly documented. A separate file contains summary weight information, and two other files contain details about obsidian bifacial tools and retouched tools. Obsidian (and chert) bifaces were analyzed by AJ Vonarx, but that dataset is not yet well documented.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

Lynette Heller recorded instances of hinge blade removals for PALM 1 excavation obsidian.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

Lynette Heller recorded instances in survey collections of hinge removals for PALM 1, mainly for prismatic obsidian blades. A separate file has information on excavation obsidian hinges. Although hinges may reflect raw material irregularities, in most cases they reflect insufficient or misdirected force in blade or flake detachment, which for blades, produced a rounded or blunt distal termination. In Palm 2, hinge information was recorded under "comments."

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file contains the classification of Palm 2 obsidian Isolated Finds. Obsidian from regular collections is in a different file.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file contains attribute information about obsidian retouched tools from the PALM 1 and 2 survey. It is a non-relational file created by AJ Vonarx for her University of Arizona Master's degree, and it is only partly documented at present.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file has information about obsidian scrapers recovered in survey and excavation during the PALM project. Isolated Find scrapers are in a separate file.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file concerns obsidian scrapers recovered as Isolated Finds (not in a designated collection area).

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file contains summary obsidian weight information for PALM 2 survey.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file tabulates artifacts related to ceramic production, such as molds, kiln debris, and so forth, for PALM survey. Items are tabulated by feature number.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file combines rims and non-rims from the Proyecto Arqueologico La Mixtequilla survey features.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

The excel file has rim sherds according to the collection and pottery category for the Proyecto Arqueologico La Mixtequilla. Isolated Finds (IFs) rims are in a separate file from those from survey feature collections.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

These rim sherds are from Stuart Speaker's dissertation research survey project in the Mixtequilla. An earlier version of the classification system was employed, so the categories are not entirely compatible with the PALM pottery classification, which was revised subsequent to 1988.

DOCUMENT Full-Text Barbara Stark.

These notes address the variables used in Oralia Cabrera's reanalysis of spindle whorls in 2000. It includes variables recorded previously.

DATASET Barbara Stark.

This file contains the reanalysis data combining prior information with new variables devised by Oralia Cabrera, for spindle whorls from the PALM project, with some modifications by Barbara Stark. The file is still needs additional work on some entries.
