Archaeology
Archaeology tools cover the technical side of fieldwork and lab analysis: dating methods like radiocarbon calibration and potassium-argon dating, and site-analysis math like minimum number of individuals (MNI) and settlement population estimates. Geoarchaeology and Chronology & Dating currently hold the most tools.
Categories in Archaeology
Chronology & Dating
Radiocarbon calibration, potassium-argon dating, thermoluminescence age estimation, and converting between BP and BCE/CE date formats: absolute and relative dating methods for researchers who already have raw lab measurements and need the standard calibration applied.
Artifact & Site Analysis
Minimum number of individuals, bone fragmentation index, pottery sherd counts, artifact density per unit area, and settlement population estimates from site size: quantitative analysis for researchers processing real excavation data.
Geoarchaeology
Soil layer depth, pollen count percentages, dendrochronology alignment, and obsidian hydration dating cover the site-formation and dating math specific to archaeological fieldwork, each built around the method archaeologists actually use on site.
