| Abstract: |
Simultaneous analysis of relationships between multiple artefact classes is required for characterisation of many types of activity areas. The paper illustrates improved forms of multivariate visualisation, spatial analysis and integration of experimental results that are possible with GIS based photomapping. Techniques are demonstrated through analysis of a hearth associated artefact scatter exposed during excavations of a Late Archaic pithouse at Peru. A multivariate density raster is created and additive colour visualisation is used for simultaneous display of three artefact distributions. Performing unconstrained clustering in a GIS, space is classified by simultaneous relative density relationships between multiple object types. |
