Data universe
- defined area of archeological investigation, bounded in
time and space.
22.
Gray literature
-
o unpublished reports from CRM research, can be found in SHPO
information centers.
o Most of the CRM cannot legally disperse the reports.
o only reproduce few for the agency they are working for and then by
law they have to put a copy in the SHPO info center.
23.
Multi-phase strategies
o based on the spatial scale of the research.
o Start with low impact and the broadest macro scale (regional survey)
o Then to high impact and the narrowest micro scale (specific sites).
o Incorporating information from earlier phases into the next phase.
24.
“catch and release”
in employing respectful archaeology
o Start with least intrusive methods (Low-Impact), then move to higher
impact after consultation with stakeholders:
o Example of Multi-Phase Field Work;
25.
Surface collection
o Aka. pedestrian survey
o Using direct observation to gather archeological data present on
the ground surface .
o Used in Areas with High Visibility;
o Methods:
§ Mark Sample Units on Study Area Map,
§ Set Spacing Between Crew Members (High/Low Intensity),
§ Walk Transects,
§ Record Archaeological Materials
o Consider:
§ map scale,
§ GPS / UTM provenience
§ orientation - compass bearing, magnetic declination
