Quarai Pueblo Ceramic data with Period information

Part of the Quarai Pueblo Archaeological project

Creator(s): Katherine Spielmann

Year: 2014

Summary

This dataset contains counts and weights for plain, white, and glaze ware ceramics from Quarai Pueblo, New Mexico. The last column also provides period designations. Early is the early 1300s; Middle is probably the late 1400s-mid-1500s but we have no direct radiocarbon dates, and late is largely colonial. Quarai was abandoned between the early and late periods--there is little middle period occupation that we found.
