DATASET Shaw Badenhorst. Jonathan Driver. Karen Schollmeyer. R. Kyle Bocinsky.

Faunal data from Albert Porter Pueblo, excavated by Crow Canyon Archaeological Center 2001-2004. Faunal analysis was by Shaw Badenhorst and Jonathan C. Driver in 2008, using methodology described in the CCAC Manual for the Description of Vertebrate Remains. Context information was integrated by Karen G. Schollmeyer in 2011 using data supplied by CCAC. Kyle Bocinsky refactored the bone modification data in 2018. Site dates are AD 1020-1280, fauna is from the period AD 1060-1280. Users should...

This dataset represents a portion of the faunal collection that was excavated at Arroyo Hondo Pueblo by the School of American Research (SAR) between 1971 and 1974. The entire assemblage was analyzed at that time by Richard Lang and Arthur Harris. Original data sheets, which derive from this analysis, are curated at the SAR. As part of a NSF-funded project, a portion of these data sheets, which included approximately 3500 specimens, was entered into a digital database. A summary of the...

DATASET Rebecca Dean. Katherine Spielmann. R. Kyle Bocinsky.

This dataset is the full Bryant Ranch Faunal dataset created by Rebecca Dean with the addition of an 'all gnaw' column. The original dataset contained separate columns for rodent gnawing and carnivore gnawing. Mapping gnawing information from Bryant Ranch to the tDAR Faunal Gnawing Ontology required a new variable that combined presence/absence information from both columns.

This faunal dataset derives from excavations conducted by Michigan State University in 2007 and 2008 at Frank's Ruin Pueblo (LA 9032). Kite Pueblo is the square adobe pueblo occupied between circa A.D. 1200 to 1350. The assemblage derives from midden, room, and extramural contexts. Note that bird faunal IDs above general categories are unreliable due to lack of comparative collection. Large birds not identified as turkey should be considered "large bird not turkey" not particular raptor or other...

This dataset consists of a portion of the faunal assemblage that was excavated by the University of Arizona at Grasshopper Pueblo. These data were entered into a digital format from the original faunal coding cards on file at the Arizona State Museum. **NB: up to this point we have not reached the cards for the avian fauna; only mammals are included in this dataset.** In cleaning the digital file February 2018 K. Spielmann undertook the following: The No of Specs column was edited to be a...

This faunal dataset derives from excavations conducted by Michigan State University in 1994 at Kite Pueblo (LA 199). Kite Pueblo is the square adobe pueblo occupied between circa A.D. 1220 to 1300. The pueblo has a glaze A occupation shown by surface artifacts and masonry construction atop the adobe pueblo.

The faunal remains analyzed in this study derive from excavations that were undertaken by the University of New Mexico in 1979. The materials were recovered from a 5 X 5 m test unit that had been placed in a midden area along the northern edge of the site. Deposits in this area were characterized by a relatively dense accumulation of stratified trash that had depths up to 3.4 meters. Due to the large volume of animal bone that was obtained from these excavations, the dataset only includes those...

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....
