boves

A dataset containing the ceramic counts from the castle site of Boves
 (Somme, France). The data are grouped into eight periods ranging from the
 10th to the 18th century and thirteen ceramic types.

datasets

An easy way to examine archaeological count data. This package
provides a convenient and reproducible toolkit for relative and absolute
dating and analysis of (chronological) patterns. It includes functions for
matrix seriation (reciprocal ranking, CA-based seriation), chronological
modeling and dating of archaeological assemblages and/or objects.
Beyond these, the package provides several tests and measures of diversity:
heterogeneity and evenness (Brillouin, Shannon, Simpson, etc.),
richness and rarefaction (Chao1, Chao2, ACE, ICE, etc.),
turnover and similarity (Brainerd-Robinson, etc.).
The package make it easy to visualize count data and statistical thresholds:
rank vs. abundance plots, heatmaps, Ford (1962) and Bertin (1977) diagrams.
