With generous support from the National Science Foundation, we have spent the past four years developing an archaeological radiocarbon database for the United States. Here, we highlight the importance of spatial data for open-access, national-scale archaeological databases and the development of paleodemography research. We propose a new method for analyzing radiocarbon time series in the context of paleoclimate models. This method forces us to confront one of the central challenges to realizing the full potential of national-scale databases: the quality of the spatial data accompanying radiocarbon dates. We seek to open a national discussion on the use of spatial data in open-source archaeological databases.

空间数据对开放存取国家考古数据库的重要性和古人口学研究的发展

在美国国家科学基金会的慷慨支持下,我们在过去四年中为美国开发了一个考古放射性碳数据库。在这里,我们强调了空间数据对于开放获取、国家级考古数据库和古人口学研究发展的重要性。我们提出了一种在古气候模型背景下分析放射性碳时间序列的新方法。这种方法迫使我们面对实现国家级数据库全部潜力的核心挑战之一:伴随放射性碳日期的空间数据的质量。我们寻求就在开源考古数据库中使用空间数据展开全国讨论。
