La Sabina Tiberina. Analisi esplorativa per la zona archeologica dell'Ager Eretanus

The aim of the work described here is to contribute to the knowledge about the ancient population located in the Ager Eretanus, through the application of a statistical methodology known as "point pattern analysis". We first present a brief discussion of the management of an application-oriented GIS in the field of archaeological research. We then present the results of a "second order analysis" undertaken on the data at our disposal. Finally, we discuss two interesting methodological problems: the first concerns the evaluation of the influence exerted on the model by possible errors in the location of the points; the second regards the proposal of a graphical representation which proves very useful in showing the variable intensity of the distribution of archaeological site.
