Roosevelt Platform Mound Study (RPMS): Access Database

The RMPS Database is the centralized database for project information and for excavation and laboratory results. This relational database stores two primary data types and the relationships among them. It houses RPMS provenience data (i.e., where artifacts and samples were located horizontally and vertically within the archaeological contexts). The database also contains information about the artifacts and sample collected during the archaeological investigation. The database structure centers on the specimen number and the corresponding specimen table. The specimen numbers link the provenience data to the artifact and sample data. The database contains several principle data fields or identifiers, which are displayed in the specimen table as well as in appropriate provenience and artifact data tables. These principle identifiers are unique keys that designate specific archaeological contexts, and groups of artifacts or single artifacts associated with specific contexts.RMPS数据库(RMPS Database)是用于归集项目信息、考古发掘与实验室检测成果的集中式数据库。该关系型数据库存储两类核心数据类型及其相互关联关系。其收录RPMS出土位置数据（provenience data），即人工制品与样品在考古遗存内的水平与垂直分布位置。本数据库同时涵盖考古调查过程中采集的遗物与样品相关信息。数据库结构以标本编号与对应标本表为核心，标本编号可实现出土位置数据与遗物、样品数据的关联绑定。 该数据库包含若干核心数据字段与标识符，此类标识既展示于标本表中，也存在于相应的出土位置及遗物数据表内。这些核心标识符为唯一键，用于指定特定考古遗存，以及与特定遗存相关联的遗物组或单件遗物。
