FILE METADATA:

Each line in the comma delimited text file represents one stratigraphic unit level. There are 82 lines, each with 3 variables separated by commas. The variables are listed in the following order:

1 Cala: The excavation unit from which artifacts were collected
2 Nivel (cmbns): The level from which artifacts were collected (total refers to all levels for a given unit)
3 Total: Total number of bahareque fragments from an excavation unit

The first line of the ASCII text file, for example, looks like this:

1,1,8

This means that the artifacts belong to unit 1, level 1. There were 8 bahareque fragments in this stratigraphic unit.
