We have been studied archeological excavation reports which are recorded on CD-ROM and also made some investigations about the situation of the archeological information which are distributed through the Internet. Through these studies, we devised the new method of the electronic report in a new concept.Generally speaking archaeological researchers use excavation reports in order to get some information necessary for their own studies. Those who studies stone tools will gather information about stone tools, and those who studied potteries will gather information about potteries. In other words the excavation reports are not the thing that it is always necessary for researchers, if information are accumulated by the unit which are able to be found easily. As for the basic roles of the report, the first one is to explain that the excavation was accomplished appropriately. The second is to explain archeological evidences provided by excavation. The best answer for these is to build some databases which are consist of information recorded on the excavation report. Database software is also needed to utilize these information.Based on this concept, we work out the grand design for database of "the archeology information" and database management system..

我们对考古发掘报告光盘进行了研究，并对考古信息在互联网上的传播情况进行了调查。通过这些研究，我们在一个新的概念中设计了电子报告的新方法。一般来说，考古工作者利用发掘报告来获取一些自己研究所需的信息。研究石器的人会收集关于石器的信息，研究陶器的人会收集关于陶器的信息。换句话说，挖掘报告并不是研究人员总是需要的东西，如果信息是由能够容易找到的单位积累的。至于报告的基本作用，第一个是说明挖掘工作是适当完成的。二是对发掘提供的考古证据进行说明。解决这些问题的最好办法是建立一些数据库，这些数据库由挖掘报告上记录的信息组成。在此基础上，对“考古信息”数据库和数据库管理系统进行了总体设计。
