The Bonn Archaeological Software Package (BASP) is a non-profit software project for and by archaeologists which has been developed cooperatively since 1973. It now includes more than 70 functions for seriation, clustering, correspondance analysis, and mapping tools for archaeologists working with IBM compatible PC's under DOS and all versions of Windows. It also includes programs for three dimensional display of data, for finding rectangular structures in scanned excavation plans containing thousands of postholes, and for the rectification of extremely oblique aerial photographs and their superimposition on large-scale scanned maps under Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista and Windows 95/98/ME.

WinBASP
A modern Windows program called Stratify by Irmela Herzog, the author of the original Basp and WinBasp Harris programme, is now available. It is recommended to download and use this instead of the old version in Winbasp. Other Windows Harris programs available for download are listed in the Help for Stratify. Click here to get Stratify
The Winbasp Harris Matrix program is simply a shell around the old DOS Basp 4.5 version, so that printing, conversion and integration with seriated data from Winbasp is possible. If a combination with seriation data is not required, then Stratify is far superior in both the amount of data it can handle and in the graphical interface provided, and it should be used instead of the Winbasp Harris shell.
INSTALLATION:
All programmes have self-expanding Windows XP/Vista compatibile installers
