Identifying Opportunities for Collective Curation During Archaeological Excavations

By Ixchel M. Faniel, Anne Austin, Sarah Whitcher Kansa, Eric Kansa, Jennifer Jacobs, Phoebe France

Archaeological excavations are comprised of interdisciplinary teams that create, manage, and share data as they unearth and analyse material culture.

Knowing this, we recommended opportunities for collective curation to improve use and reuse of the data within and outside of the team.
