The explanation of archaeological cloth … what is the specific content?

Simply speaking, the process of demarcating the exploration site on the surface of the archaeological excavation area is called "layout". The location of the cloth is determined by investigation and drilling, as well as some archaeological knowledge reserves. For example, when we discover the general scope of a city site through drilling, we predict its layout according to the characteristics of the city site in different times, so as to arrange the site in the area where the relic phenomenon is concentrated first; If you want to dig a tomb, the cloth side will roughly block the scope of the tomb. Of course, the location of the layout is also related to the purpose of excavation. When we want to understand the structure of the city wall, we will take the layout form that is convenient for the anatomical excavation of the city wall.

tell me more about the process of cloth laying. Generally, the southwest corner of the excavation area is regarded as the base point and the excavation area is regarded as the rectangular coordinate system. Then, several equal excavation areas are divided in the excavation, which is called "exploration". Generally, there are specifications such as 5 meters *5 meters, 1 meters *1 meters; Individual detailed paleolithic archaeology will have 1*1. In the process of layout, we should use engineering lines and stakes (brazing) to determine points and lines, and constantly use compasses to calibrate the direction. When the excavation is carried out to a certain extent, the line used by the cloth will be removed. For large-scale continuous layout, it is necessary to draw a sketch on the site plan and number it. As for the numbering methods, there are many, so I won't go into details here.

space is limited, and my introduction is very simple. However, the layout is indeed a very important and very basic work before the archaeological excavation begins.
