This paper presents the results of the analysis of excavation diaries from Catalhoyuk recorded under the principles of the reflexive method as defined by Ian Hodder and his colleagues. The main purpose of the analysis was examining the content of excavation diaries to evaluate how this contributes to improving the credibility of primary data. The investigation led to the identification of relevant and trivial information for such purpose. Overall, this study suggests that archaeologists should be aware of such distinctions for producing higher quality records.
