Pandora is an open data platform devoted to the study of the human story. Data may be deposited from various disciplines and research topics that investigate humans from their early beginnings until present in addition to their environmental context (e.g. archeology, anthropology history, ancient DNA, isotopes, zooarchaeology, archaeobotany, and paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic studies, etc.). Pandora allows autonomous data communities to self-manage their webspace and community membership. Data communities self-curate their data plus other supporting resources. Datasets may be assigned a new DOI and a schema markup is employed to improve data findability. Pandora also allows for links to datasets stored externally and having previously assigned DOIs. Through this, it becomes possible to establish data networks devoted to specific topics that may combine a mix of datasets stored either within Pandora or externally.

LiVES Collection of Osteological Anthropometry Digest

LiVES COstA Digest

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
The collection contains stature-related and other anthropometric data of 7686 skeletal individuals (including aggregated information for several individuals) from the prehistory of Southwest Asia and Europe. While the focus period of our collection is the Holocene ca. 10 000 to 1000 BC, the data collection also includes older specimens of anatomically modern humans (dating as early as 110 k BP in the case of Qafzeh). The upper date range in some cases extends to around 100 AD, although the great majority of datasets date no later than 600 BC. Correctness and completeness were pursued for all information relevant to stature, i.e. basic information such as sex (after Sjøvold 1988) and age (after Szilvássy 1988) as well as the long bone measurements, whereas other measurements were merely inherited from the two integrated older data bases and not explicitly checked. All measurements conform to the definitions given by Martin 1928. To grasp common publication practice in the literature, not only left and right body side, but also mean values from both sides as well as measurements with unknown siding have their own separate fields for the stature-related long bone measurements.

We intend to use our website as the center of our data distribution efforts, to serve as central site for collection of possible error information and questions, to provide a forum for interaction with users of Correlates of War data, and as a way for the international relations community to contribute to the continuing development of the project.
