Collection unit number Collection unit name Area (ha) of shovel probe concentrations All Bronze Age sherds from shovel probes Number of Shovel Probes that contained ceramics Total shovel probes excavated within the collection unit Shovel probes that contained cultural material (bones, slag, lithics, ceramics, etc.) Shovel probes with 0 ceramics Percent of shovel probes that contained ceramics Average number of  sherds per shovel probe Density. Average number of sherds per m² (all probes are 40 cm x 40 cm).

*For collection units 1, 2, and 4, a median density value of 3 sherds per square meter was used because these collection units were in a modern quarry area and no shovel probes could be excavated (see chapter 2 of the dissertation associated with this dataset for more details).
