Summary

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Over the past two summers at the archaeological excavation of Etzanoa we used a Leica P40 scanner to create 3-D models of the excavation units. The accuracy of the measurements is + 1 mm. It is possible to take measurements of features and object from the model. The scanner has some limitations for recording deep excavations, and a novel method for overcoming them is discussed.
