A simplified version of the stratigraphy of Shubayqa 1, an Epipalaeolithic site in eastern Jordan, after Richter et al. (2017) .
Format
A data frame with 30 rows, representing contexts, and 7 variables:
- context
integer; a unique identifier of the context.
- type
character; type of context, i.e. deposit, fill, cut, or structural.
- above
integer vector; context(s) stratigraphically above this one.
- below
integer vector; context(s) stratigraphically below this one.
- equal
integer vector; context(s) stratigraphically equal to this one.
- phase
character; Phase assigned to the context, for contexts that aren't structural.
- structure
character; for structural contexts, the name of the structure they belong to.
Details
The stratigraphy is a simplified version derived from the schematic section in Richter et al. (2017) , figure 2. Context numbers were arbitrarily assigned and the stratigraphic relations are based on those evident in the diagram. Phase and structure names are also based on the diagram.
