Schoolhouse Point Mound Data: Special Artifacts from Screened Contexts

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 Special Artifacts from Screened Contexts presents a summary of fine, elaborate, rare, and/or otherwise special goods recovered from excavated contexts that were screened. In general, it presents a list of fine goods and other artifacts that received a Stage 3 Special analysis.

The table lists designated archaeological contexts - strata - at the site, and then provides the frequency (count) of different special artifacts for each stratum. The table presents counts of special artifacts in the following artifact categories: bifaces, drills, and projectile points; large stone implements; ceramic manufacturing materials; disks and whorls (ceramic and stone); stone jewelry; shell jewelry; manuports (rare minerals or other stone objects); grinding implements, mortars, and pestles; and miscellaneous artifacts.

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:

校舍点土丘（Schoolhouse Point Mound, AZ U:8:24(ASM), AR-03-12-06-13a(USFS)）数据集表格汇总了亚利桑那州立大学（Arizona State University, ASU）文化资源管理办公室（Office of Cultural Resource Management, OCRM）开展的罗斯福台地研究（Roosevelt Platform Mound Study, RPMS）在该校舍点土丘的考古发掘中出土的遗存。其中《校舍点土丘：筛洗埋藏单元专项遗存》表格汇总了经筛洗的考古埋藏单元中出土的精美、精致、珍稀及其他特殊类遗物。总体而言，该表格列出了经第三阶段专项分析的精美遗物与其他遗存。

该表格列出了遗址内已标定的考古埋藏单元——即地层（strata），并给出了各地层中不同专项遗存的出现频次（数量）。表格统计了以下类别的专项遗存：两面器、钻器与投射器尖；大型石器工具；陶瓷制作原料；圆盘与纺轮（陶瓷及石质）；石质饰品；贝质饰品；搬运石（manuports，珍稀矿物或其他石块）；研磨工具、臼与杵；以及杂项遗存。

地层代表了主要的自然或文化沉积事件，例如侵蚀堆积、屋顶坍塌、居住面埋藏单元以及无遗物基质。在地层哈里斯矩阵（Harris Matrix）中，地层被表示为相互连接的水平矩形框组。在单个考古遗迹内，各地层通过遗迹编号（如10、11、12等）与代表特定地层的字母（如A、B、C）共同标定。字母按降序规则分配。混合层位与脱离原生埋藏单元采集的遗存以“？”标注。各遗迹（或混合埋藏单元）出土的遗存将按地层进行统计。如需进一步细节，请查阅列元数据。如需了解各地层的详细信息（包括标定的地层类型），请访问以下数字考古记录库（tDAR）链接查看数据集表格"Schoolhouse Point Mound Data: Strata"：https://core.tdar.org/dataset/394231
