Supplemental paste composition data from the Manialtepec Basin, Oaxaca

This data article contains archaeological context information and paste compositional data from 66 pottery sherds collected at seven archaeological sites in the Manialtepec Basin on the Pacific coast of Oaxaca, Mexico. The data include maps showing collection locations, a drawing of one archaeological profile, photographs of sherds, and compositional data produced by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis at the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR). The NAA data include a tabulation of principal components, data from log-based cluster analyses and compositional group defining discriminant analyses. The data also include bootstrapped Mahalanobis distance calculations.
