It designates something larger than a single artifact: artifacts should be recorded together, occupational floor, a past surface on which activities took place. Provenience of the artifact: its location on a site: a find spot, you have to record it both horizontally as well as vertically. Field notes: recording of what happens every day at the site. What pits were excavated, the things that were foundfor example: you cant trust your memory, redundancy, its easy to mis-lay something, its easy to forget to record something, you can never write down something too many times.
