Do you manage prehistory archaeology collections?
MV is conducting preliminary research into how other organisations manage prehistoric archaeology collections such as stone tools.
We have three existing Archaeology tabs (attached) but these are specific to historical archaeology collections.
We’d love to hear from you.

Hello,
Is anybody there?
We are revisiting the possibility of Archaeology-specific tabs.
Do you have any fields or tabs to share?
We look forward to hearing from you.

Hi All,
Just bumping this request from 2012 back up to the top to ask whether there are now any shared resources following recent Archaeology SIG Discussions?
I'm particularly interested in solutions for documenting hierarchical site information >Area --> Trench--> Levels etc.
Many thanks
Dave
