Spatial Analysis in Archaeology from Refitting Fragments

v1.2.3 · Sep 26, 2025 · GPL-3

Description

Methods to analyse spatial units in archaeology from the relationships between refitting fragmented objects scattered in these units (e.g. stratigraphic layers). Graphs are used to model archaeological observations. The package is mainly based on the 'igraph' package for graph analysis. Functions can: 1) create, manipulate, visualise, and simulate fragmentation graphs, 2) measure the cohesion and admixture of archaeological spatial units, and 3) characterise the topology of a specific set of refitting relationships. A series of published empirical datasets is included. Documentation about 'archeofrag' is provided by a vignette and by the accompanying scientific papers: Plutniak (2021, Journal of Archaeological Science, <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2021.105501>) and Plutniak (2022, Journal of Open Source Software, <doi:10.21105/joss.04335>). This package is complemented by the 'archeofrag.gui' R package, a companion GUI application available at <https://analytics.huma-num.fr/Sebastien.Plutniak/archeofrag/>.
