Archaeology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (4587 words) |
 | Archaeological excavation existed when the field was still the domain of amateurs, and it remains the source of the majority of data recovered in most field projects. |
| Scaled plans and sections of individual features are all drawn on site, fl and white and colour photographs of them are taken, and recording sheets are filled in describing the context of each. |
| The first major phase in the history of archaeological theory is commonly referred to as cultural, or culture, history, which was developed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. |
| Archaeological section - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (160 words) |
| In archaeology a section is a view of an excavated archaeological trench or feature showing the contents of that feature in the vertical plane, as a cross-section, and thereby illustrating its profile and stratigraphy. |
| Large features such as barrows or sunken buildings might be sectioned in quarters and linear features are sectioned at intervals along their lengths. |
| Sections are used in connection with two-dimensional plans to record archaeological sites. |
