Part of the Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)): Unit 11, Van Buren and 44th Streets: Soil Systems, Inc. DMB Property Testing and Data Recovery project
Creator(s): Maria Martin; David Abbott
Year: 1997
Summary
The DMB Property Testing and Data Recovery Ceramic Rough Sort (RS_CERAMICS) Data sheet contains data from the rough sort analysis of ceramics recovered during the DMB testing and data recovery project (SSI Project No. 97-02) at Pueblo Grande, Unit 11. It contains information on ceramic types, tempers and counts; it also records vessel and rim forms where applicable. The data sheet also contains rim circumference and rim diameter measurements when possible.

BIGINT | Uncoded Value | Provenience and Context : Horizontal Location | none | none | true | |
FEATURE_NUMBER | The number of a feature identified and documented in a given PD unit. At each site, feature numbers were assigned from 1 to n. Subfeature numbers include the associated feature number followed by a decimal; subfeature numbers begin at .01 for each feature. For example, the second subfeature excavated in Feature 15 is coded as 15.02. | |||||
DOUBLE | Uncoded Value | Provenience and Context : Feature ID/Number | none | none | true | |
ANALYSIS_DATE | The date on which the ceramics in a given FS were analyzed. | |||||
VARCHAR | Uncoded Value | Storage : Other | none | none | true | |
RIM_FILLET | The presence/absence and basic description of a fillet on a vessel's rim. | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Form | Soil Systems, Inc. Vessel Rim Fillet Coding Sheet | none | true | |
RIM_ANGLE | The form or shape (e.g., straight, outcurved, flared, etc.) of a pottery vessel's (or sherd's) rim. The shape description is based on the appearance of the rim in profile view. | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Form | Soil Systems, Inc. Vessel Rim Angle Coding Sheet | none | true | |
WEIGHT | The measured weight of (in grams) of the ceramic artifacts from the same FS and with the same ceramic type, temper type, and vessel form. | |||||
BIGINT | Measurement (gram) | Ceramic : Weight | none | none | true | |
VESSEL_FORM | A basic description of the inferred or observed form (e.g., bowl, jar, scoop, etc.) of a ceramic vessel. | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Form | Soil Systems, Inc. Vessel Form Coding Sheet | none | true | |
FEATURE_TYPE | The inferred type (i.e., function and/or cultural use, significance) of a given feature. Please refer to Soil Systems, Inc. Feature Type Coding Sheet for a list of all available feature types. | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Provenience and Context : Feature ID/Number | Soil Systems, Inc. Feature Type Coding Sheet | none | true | |
RIM_CIRCUMFERENCE | The estimated or measured total circumference of a pottery vessel's rim. | |||||

RIM_DIAMETER | The estimated or measured greatest diameter between two opposite endpoints on a vessel's rim. | |||||
BIGINT | Measurement (centimeter) | Ceramic : Form | none | none | true | |

BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Form | Soil Systems, Inc. Vessel Rim Lip Shape Coding Sheet | none | true | |
SHERD_TEMPER | The presence/absence of sherd temper (i.e., grog temper) in a pottery sherd or vessel. | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Other | Soil Systems, Inc. Sherd Temper Coding Sheet | none | true | |
TEMPER | A basic description of the temper type identified in a ceramic artifact, predominantly pottery sherds and vessels. Many of the temper types describe particular types of geologic types and/or raw materials (e.g., schist, phyllite, micah and quartz sand, etc.). Some temper type designations include geographic source information with a raw material description (e.g., Squaw Peak schist). | |||||
BIGINT | Coded Value | Ceramic : Other | Soil Systems, Inc. Ceramic Temper Coding Sheet | none | true | |
AUDIT_VERSION | The Soil Systems, Inc. relational database originally contained audit tables for each artifact/analysis type to track updates/changes made to the primary data tables. Database managers recorded changes to particular data values in these audit tables. The changes were then passed on to the main data table (e.g., RS_CERAMICS). The AUDIT_VERSION number refers to the "audit number" for that particular row. Thus, if a data row contains an AUDIT_VERSION value of "2", then that row has been updated/changed with the audit-version number 2 (i.e., it has been updated two times). | |||||

Notes
General Note: These data were extracted from SSI's Advanced Revelation (AREV) relational database. The flat data set presented here represent a near complete extraction of the RS_CERAMICS_DATA table in AREV database 97-02 DMB PG.
General Note: Please note that SSI recorded the Pueblo Grande number as AZ U:9:7(ASM), which is the designation for a portion of Pueblo Grande. The correct number for the site as a whole is AZ U:9:1(ASM).
