Schoolhouse Point Mound Data: Decorated Ceramics from Screened Contexts

Part of the Roosevelt Platform Mound Study: Pinto Creek Complex, Schoolhouse Point Mound (DRAFT) project

Creator(s): Archaeological Research Institute, Arizona State University

Year: 1996

Summary

The Schoolhouse Point Mound Data tables provide a summary of the artifacts recovered during Arizona State University (ASU), Office of Cultural Resource Management's (OCRM) Roosevelt Platform Mound Study (RPMS) excavations at Schoolhouse Point Mound (AZ U:8:24(ASM), AR-03-12-06-13a(USFS)). The Schoolhouse Point Mound table Decorated Ceramics from Screened Contexts presents a summary of decorated ceramic vessels recovered from excavated contexts that were screened.

The table lists designated archaeological contexts - strata - at the site, and then provides the frequency (count) of individual vessels assigned to different decorated ceramic types for each stratum. Note that the table presents a count of individual vessels (i.e., groups of sherds or single sherds assigned to individual vessels) identified to decorated ceramic type. More specifically, it presents a count of rim sherds that were assigned to a single vessel (The Stage 2 Ceramic Decorated/Intrusive analysis examined rim sherds to determine ceramic type for individually designated vessels).

The strata represent major natural or cultural depositional events such as erosional fill, roof fall, floor contexts, and sterile substrate. Strata are depicted as horizontal rows of interconnected boxes on a Harris Matrix. Within a feature, each stratum is designated by the feature number (e.g., 10, 11, 12, etc.) and a letter that designates a particular stratum (e.g., A, B, C). The letters are assigned in descending order. Mixed levels and artifacts collected out of context are designated by a "?". Artifacts from each feature (or mixed context) are tallied according to strata. Please see column metadata for further detail. Please also see the data table "Schoolhouse Point Mound Data: Strata" for further data about each stratum, including the assigned stratum type, at the following tDAR url: https://core.tdar.org/dataset/394231

The Schoolhouse Point Mound Data tables were originally published on the Roosevelt Platform Mound Monograph Series No. 6 titled "The Place of the Storehouses, Roosevelt Platform Mound Study: Report on the Schoolhouse Point Mound, Pinto Creek Complex, Part 2." The tables were published in an appendix at the end of the volume. Please see the report volume at the following tDAR URL:

San Carlos R/brown Frequency of individual vessels that were identified to the decorated ceramic ware and type Hohokam Red-on-brown, San Carlos Red-on-brown. The Stage 2 Ceramic Decorated/Intrusive analysis examined rim sherds assigned to the same (i.e., individually recognized) vessels to determine ceramic ware and type. Thus, this table records rim sherds assigned to single vessels. Rather distinct Hohokam design styles were used in multiple ceramic wares in the Hohokam area through time. The Hohokam stylistic tradition was divided into three temporally-based traditions - the Hohokam Colonial, Sedentary, and Classic periods. The characteristics of the Hohokam Colonial, Hohokam Sedentary, and Hohokam Classic stylistic traditions are as follows (A Laboratory Plan for Salado Research, pp. 3-34 -- 3-36): HOHOKAM COLONIAL fine line execution, good paint hatching used as background, zig–zag line hature a multitude of animal, bird, and human motifs and elements (dancing figures, burden carriers, flute players, birds (in positive & negative) reptiles, and quadrapeds) trailing lines on bowl exteriors (exterior grooving of paste) HOHOKAM SEDENTARY some what sloppy, freely–executed curvilinear motifs scrolls, linework with equlateral triangles, bumps and hatchure common small elements occur (Hohokam “alphabet” as well as circles, dots, birds, animals) Equilateral triangular areas filled w/paint have “bulls eyes” lots of paint covers design field leaving relatively small amounts of undecorated area HOHOKAM CLASSIC good to poor line execution, poor–fugitive paint possible (buffs especially) general rectilinear shape of motifs & elements complex “woven” symmetry of layout commonly truncated as band designs line work elaboration has elongated triangles pendant dots, triangles with flags, hatchure vertical hatchure separates panels of bands areas of checker boards and crosshature incorporated into whole design

Stratum Identifies a major natural or cultural depositional event such as erosional fill, roof fall, floor contexts, and sterile substrate (i.e., a single archaeological context in both horizontal and vertical space). Strata are depicted as horizontal rows of interconnected boxes on a Harris Matrix. A stratum is a combination of an individual feature and a context in or associated with that feature. For example, Feature 10 might be a structure with an erosonial fill stratum, a roof fall stratum, a floor stratum, and a sterile substrate stratum. Within each feature, each stratum is designated by the feature number (e.g., 10, 11, 12, etc.) and a letter that designates a particular stratum (e.g., A, B, C). The levels excavated in a feature were aggregated into individual feature strata (e.g., Levels 1 - 3 = Stratum A). A feature's stratum letters are assigned in descending order. A context letter of "?" designates a mixed level or context or artifacts collected out of context. Examples: 0? = General Cultural Fill/No Feature and Indeterminate context 10A = Feature 10 and Context A 10B = Feature 10 and Context B 10C = Feature 10 and Context C 22? = Feature 22 and Mixed and/or Undefined context 22A - Feature 22 and Context A Each stratum (e.g., 10C) is assigned to a stratum type. The stratum data are presented in a separate stratum data table. Please see the data table Schoolhouse Point Mound Data: Strata at the following tDAR url: https://core.tdar.org/dataset/394231 Examples: 10A = Feature 10 and Context A = Feature 10, erosional fill 10B = Feature 10 and Context B = Feature 10, roof fall 10C = Feature 10 and Context C = Feature 10, floor Artifacts collected from each feature are tallied according to strata. For example, artifacts collected from Feature 10 are tallied for Stratum A, Stratum B, Stratum C, etc.

Thus, this table records rim sherds assigned to single vessels. Rather distinct Hohokam design styles were used in multiple ceramic wares in the Hohokam area through time. The Hohokam stylistic tradition was divided into three temporally-based traditions - the Hohokam Colonial, Sedentary, and Classic periods. The characteristics of the Hohokam Colonial, Hohokam Sedentary, and Hohokam Classic stylistic traditions are as follows (A Laboratory Plan for Salado Research, pp. 3-34 -- 3-36): HOHOKAM COLONIAL fine line execution, good paint hatching used as background, zig–zag line hature a multitude of animal, bird, and human motifs and elements (dancing figures, burden carriers, flute players, birds (in positive & negative) reptiles, and quadrapeds) trailing lines on bowl exteriors (exterior grooving of paste) HOHOKAM SEDENTARY some what sloppy, freely–executed curvilinear motifs scrolls, linework with equlateral triangles, bumps and hatchure common small elements occur (Hohokam “alphabet” as well as circles, dots, birds, animals) Equilateral triangular areas filled w/paint have “bulls eyes” lots of paint covers design field leaving relatively small amounts of undecorated area HOHOKAM CLASSIC good to poor line execution, poor–fugitive paint possible (buffs especially) general rectilinear shape of motifs & elements complex “woven” symmetry of layout commonly truncated as band designs line work elaboration has elongated triangles pendant dots, triangles with flags, hatchure vertical hatchure separates panels of bands areas of checker boards and crosshature incorporated into whole design

Flagstaff B/W Frequency of individual vessels that were identified to the decorated ceramic ware and type Tusayan White Ware, Flagstaff Black-on-white. The Stage 2 Ceramic Decorated/Intrusive analysis examined rim sherds assigned to the same (i.e., individually recognized) vessels to determine ceramic ware and type. Thus, this table records rim sherds assigned to single vessels.

Hopi yellow ware Frequency of individual vessels that were identified to the general decorated ceramic ware Hopi Yellow Ware. The Stage 2 Ceramic Decorated/Intrusive analysis examined rim sherds assigned to the same (i.e., individually recognized) vessels to determine ceramic ware and type. Thus, this table records rim sherds assigned to single vessels.
