Crescent Beach data

As part of the project that led to the excavation of the Crescent Beach site in 1989-90, three sites had their artifacts classified using the same system. These are the collections from the 1989-90 excavations at Crescent Beach, the 1949-50 excavations at Whalen Farm and the 1948 excavations at the Locarno Beach site. The description and illustrations of the artifact classes are found in Chapter V of The Crescent Beach site and the place of the Locarno Beach phase (edited by R.G. Matson) available at: https://circle.ubc.ca/handle/2429/39218. The individual artifacts have their provenience, classification and metric measurements given in the Crescent Beach Artifacts databases. Three separate files in DBaseIII format, one for each site, are described in the Codebook for the Crescent Beach artifacts. In Chapter XII of the Crescent Beach monograph, a number of Locarno Beach culture or related components are compared using multivariate techniqes. In the Site Codebook the Excel file that tabulates the 26 assemblages and 55 artifact classes used is described.

作为1989至1990年新月海滩遗址（Crescent Beach site）发掘项目的组成部分，共有三处遗址的出土文物采用统一标准完成分类。这三处遗址分别为：1989-1990年发掘的新月海滩遗址、1949-1950年发掘的惠伦农场遗址（Whalen Farm）以及1948年发掘的洛迦诺海滩遗址（Locarno Beach site）。
文物类别的描述与图解可参阅由R.G.马特森（R.G. Matson）编撰的《新月海滩遗址与洛迦诺海滩阶段遗存》（The Crescent Beach site and the place of the Locarno Beach phase）第五章，该文献可通过链接https://circle.ubc.ca/handle/2429/39218获取。
单件文物的出土背景（provenience）、分类信息与度量数据均收录于《新月海滩文物数据库》（Crescent Beach Artifacts databases）中。
《新月海滩文物编码手册》（Codebook for the Crescent Beach artifacts）对三份分别对应各遗址的DBaseIII格式独立数据文件进行了详细说明。
在《新月海滩专题论著》（Crescent Beach monograph）的第十二章中，研究者采用多元分析技术对多组洛迦诺海滩文化相关遗存单元开展了对比研究。
《遗址编码手册》（Site Codebook）则对这份汇总了26组遗存组合与55类文物类别的Excel文件进行了说明。
