Resources Inside This Collection (Viewing 1-24 of 24)
There are 24 Datasets within this Collection [remove this filter]
-
Gran Quivira faunal data (2003)
DATASET
Faunal data from the Gran Quivira archaeological project.
-
Pueblo Blanco Ceramic Data (2003)
DATASET
This dataset contains information on the ceramics recovered during the 1999-2000 ASU excavation seasons at Pueblo Blanco, New Mexico.
-
Pueblo Blanco faunal data (2000)
DATASET
Excavations at Pueblo Blanco by Arizona State University resulted in the recovery of a large faunal assemblage containing a total of 64,733 specimens (Table 2). Approximately 32 percent of the assemblage, or 20,621 specimens, are considered identifiable. In this analysis, mammalian, avian, and reptilian fauna are classified as “identifiable” if the specimen can be classified to an order. Given the highly fragmented nature of fish bone, these remains are only identified to the class level.
