 Project Registration Form
One Project Registration Form should be completed for each project submitted, whether there will be one or many sites sent in as part of the project. This form includes fields where you can record your contact information, the name and
description of the project, and for archaeological survey projects, the survey methodology used.

 ADAA Site Form
One Site Form should be completed for each site submitted. This form includes fields where you can record the site field number, name, size, location (in decimal degrees), a primary reference for the site and
a verbal description of the site. You can also include links to a web page for the site by including the URL of the page.

 ADAA Site Names Form
Sites frequently have multiple names. There might be a local, colloquial name for a site and a different official one. In the ADAA, there will be at least one Greek name, and there may be more; there may also be one or more Turkish names for a site.
In the ADAA database, these non-English names are transliterated into English, because we don't store Greek and Cyrillic characters. Thus, there may be many different ways of transliterating the various Greek and/or Turkish names.
Use this form to record all the variant spellings of the different names for a site. Use as many pages as needed to record all the names.

 ADAA Site Components Form
In the Aegean Digital Archaeological Atlas a "Site Component" is regarded as a site or feature type and a time period. It's necessary to record components this way because we have found from building other nodes of the Mediterranean Archaeological
Network that this is the most frequently requested kind of database query. We are often asked to fetch all the fortified sites from the Early Bronze II period, for example. And unless the site components are stored this way, they can't be
retrieved this way. The Site Components Form includes fields for each time period used in the Hellenic Ministry of Culture / National Archive of Monuments database. Each site / feature type (from the Site / Feature Type List, see the next downloadable form)
present at the site in each time period should be written in the appropriate period field. This will let us conduct searches by time period, or site / feature type, or both. So be as complete as you can be.

 ADAA Feature Types List
This file is a two-page listing of the site / feature types currtently recognized in the ADAA database. They are organized by classes, and each entry has a number to the left of the listing. Use the number corresponding to the site / feature type you want
to record, and write it in the correct time period field on the Site Components Form. The Site / Feature Type List is a work in progress, so there may be further additions to it.

 ADAA Site Pictures Form
Since the purpose of doing the site recording is to create an online atlas, the ADAA would like to have digital pictures of the sites you record. Use this form to provide the photograph metadata for each picture you want to be shown for each site.
The form has room for three pictures, which is all we plan to display of any one site, so choose carefully. Describe where the picture was taken (as specifically as you can, using coordinates in decimal degrees of latitude and longitude). Tell us what
the photograph illustrates, who took it, and when. But most importantly, when you submit pictures to accompany your sites, you will need to burn them onto a CD and send them in with your paperwork. Make doubly sure that the filenames for your pictures are unique
and that they are listed on the form in exactly the way they are named on the CD. Otherwise we won't be able to match them with the correct site.
