Summary

This dataset combines Johnston site fauna from various analysts. Including faunal identifications done by Laura Kaufman for her Masters thesis, flotation analyses done primarily by Andrea Boon in the Fall of 2012, and identifications done in the Fall of 2012 by graduate students in Sarah Neusius' Zooarchaeology class under her supervision.

Context Type A single digit designation for midden, feature, excavation unit, burial, etc. based on information provided by the archaeologist. Establish numeric codes as needed.

Bag # Field bag or FS number as assigned by the archaeologist in the field. This might also be a catalog number if one has been assigned for an accessioned collection.
TEXT  Uncoded Value uncategorized none none true
Spec # An item number assigned to each unique bone or group of bones as analysis is done. Numbering begins again for each unit, quad, & level. Assign specimen number consecutively within each bag/provenience. Use the following rules. 1. Each worked bone must have a separate specimen number. 2. Each hold bone must have a separate specimen number. 3. All bones in a single level & quad Number with identical coding on all variables may have the same catalog number. DO NOT assign more than one bone the same catalog number unless their coding including taxon, element, side, portion, and condition, etc. match. This means that most identifiable bone will have individual catalog numbers, but indeterminate fragments can be lumped up to 99 (see Number of Items). 4. Separate cf (compares favorably) from certain and assign two catalog numbers
TEXT  Uncoded Value uncategorized none none true
