Building on previous research (Cuyler, A., Carruthers, M., Imbesi, J. 2023. “Cultural Policy of the Oppressed” [Data set], University of Michigan - Deep Blue Data. https://doi.org/10.7302/9e20-zg88), we performed a qualitative textual analysis of three related areas of oppression, colonialism, expansionism, and imperialism, and how they have been discussed within cultural policy research. The analysis focused on three major cultural policy journals, Cultural Trends, the Journal of Arts Management, Society, and Law, and the International Journal of Cultural Policy.

This record includes photos (JPGs) and drawings (PDF of scans of originals) of small finds, e.g., glass; coins, spindle whorls, loom weights, metal artifacts; bullets; nails; etc., as well as a list of the drawings with descriptions (PDF file) and a small finds database (.CSV). The database includes all small finds collected and analyzed by PASH, although not all small finds were drawn and photographed. Grinding stones and chipped stone are located in separate records. and Chapter linked to: Seventeen

This work contains documentation for the entire Projekti Arkeologjik i Shkodrës (PASH) data set, which has been organized into a series of collections and works in the Deep Blue Data repository to facilitate access and navigation. The data presented here accompany a two-volume research report, published by the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology Press (Galaty and Bejko 2023--see below).

we conducted an emergent qualitative systematic content analysis of scholarship published in Cultural Trends, the International Journal of Cultural Policy, and the Journal of Arts Management, Law, and Society since the peer-reviewed journals’ inceptions.
A subset of the Kelenga recordings are being transcribed and will serve as data for the Kelenga reference grammar which, when finished, will be included in the collection "Bozo languages of Mali (documents)" in Deep Blue Documents (see link).
these and other recordings are data for a reference grammar of Kelenga that, when completed, will be archived in the collection "Bozo languages of Mali (documents)" in Deep Blue Documents. For contents see the "notes" file inside the work. A few of the Kelenga texts are being transcribed, others will be left for others to transcribe or listen to as they wish.
recordings made in Barato village. Referred to as "text 2021-02" and "text 2021-03." Text 2021-03 is transcribed and annotated at the end of the reference grammar (see link to Deep Blue Documents). Text 2021-02 covers a subset of the same content and has not been transcribed as of late 2022. See also "notes" file inside the work.
For content see the "notes" file inside the work. Most of the recordings are translated and annotated at the end of the reference grammar (see link to Deep Blue Documents).
This collection includes all of the data from auger holes and cores drilled by PASH in the vicinity of Lake Shkodra. These data are stored as comma-separated text files (.CSV). They are organized into eight different worksheets, titled: 1) Auger Hole Summary; 2) Auger Hole Sample Data; 3) Core 4 Data; 4) Core 5 Data; 5) Core 6 Data; 6) Core 8 Data; 7) Core 9 Data; and 8) PASH geological data ALL (Excel)., See readme for full description., and Chapter linked to: Chapter Two
PDFs of Accelerator Mass Spectroscopy (AMS) radiocarbon reports, including calibration curves. Reports include sample type (e.g., charcoal, bone, sediment), date, date calibrated, standard deviation, etc.
Photos are of each level in each unit, and of features. Photos are labeled with the site number, date taken, and a ID number, e.g., S015-05262014-001 = the first photo taken on May 25, 2014 during the excavation of Zagorë. The photolog lists each photo taken of a site during excavation in order by photo number (site number, date taken, ID number), with a description.
The database for each site includes level and feature forms for each excavated unit. These forms describe each level or feature in detail, including soil color and texture, soil inclusions, artifact density, disturbances, pertinent measurements, etc.
PDFs of scans of miscellaneous documents related to a particular excavation, including, e.g., excavation forms, maps of units, and drawings of units and unit profiles.
