Apologies for cross posting
The Archaeology Data Service (ADS) is pleased to announce that the
Database of Implement Petrology for Britain is now available on-line as
a downloadable delimited text file suitable for import into most
databases or spreadsheets. The database has been assembled by the
Implement Petrology Committee (IPC) of the Council for British
Archaeology (CBA).
This valuable resource can be accessed from either the 'Project
Archives' button on the main menu of ArchSearch at
http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/ and selecting the 'Finds-based studies'
option or through the ADS catalogue. For example, try a keyword search
on 'petrology' and follow the links.
DAPPER update: following user feedback including a special workshop the
ArchSearch Project Archives interface has been remodeled. Take a look at
http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/. Also AutoCAD drawings are now being
made available in DWF format as well DXF ans DWG. This is a special
internet format which can be viewed using the AutoCAD WHIP browser
plug-in. The latter can be downloaded at
http://www.autodesk.com/products/whip/index.htm . The Digital Archiving
Pilot Project: Excavation Records project was funded by English Heritage
and provides the digital Excavation archives for the Royal Opera House
(MoLAS) and Eynsham Abbey (OAU).
