Typological index with Frequency Computations
Objects (excluding ceramics) and samples
by definition

Processed on 2026-01-17
Included here are movable elements, which are
  • either artifactual (objects such as seals ans seal impression, figurines or ceramic vessels), or
  • natural (samples and specimens such as charred wood, animal bones or botanical remnants).
They include both items and q-items, a distinction that is based on stratigraphic criteria.
Sherds are excluded and listed elsewhere, because, given the large amounts in which they occur, they would unduly skew the frequencies.
