AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This article consists of a catalog of surveyed sites prepared as an appendix to the author's major work in the eHRAF collection on the Late Chalcolithic Mesopotamian period (see Adams, 1972, no. 9). Numbered references in this catalog refer to site reference maps appearing in the above document (i. e., Adams, 1972, no. 9). Although the catalog covers a wide range of Mesopotamian archaeological traditions in its site descriptions, ranging from Ubaid through Samarran, only data relevant to the Late Chalcolithic, particularly the Early and Late Uruk periods, have been indexed for Outline of Cultural Materials (OCM)subjects.
