Big bucks or a big mistake? 2006, Taylor and Francis, London). In the 1990s, the Dutch government proceeded with a national archaeological predictive model, called the IKAW (Indicatieve Kaart Van Archeologische Waarden), probably because it was estimated that about a third of all archaeology in the Netherlands has been lost since 1950 due to development! Look in a high category area, you will only find archaeology within that area and conversely if you do not. One can understand the lure of archaeologica...

‘Environmentally Deterministic’ Predictive Models « ARCHAEOLOGICAL MODELLING
https://archaeologicalmodelling.wordpress.com/2008/04/26/‘environmentally-deterministic’-predictive-models
Environmentally Deterministic’ Predictive Models. Unless you are modelling the documented past, digital datasets for social factors do not exist and are virtually impossible to make due to a fundamental lack of historical information. One can theorise about social factors but you soon get into all sorts of arguments and counter arguments, which end up with you guessing! So, should archaeological predictive modellers simply ignore all social factors on the assumption that environmental factors over shadow...

So why are my predictive models not as powerful as other predictive models? 2000, Taylor and Francis, London). Typically the gains of my models are around 15 – 25% for predicting the model’s own input data and independent test datasets. So the question is why what am I doing wrong? 2006, Taylor and Francis, London). Whilst foraging and hunting for food is possible in such a terrain, farming and building permanent settlements on flat ground is severely limited. Consequently, such terrain is ideal ...24: 2...

Testing archaeological predictive models. So how does one test an archaeological predictive model or know how well a predictive model works? If you determine how well a model predicts its own input data, what does it tell you about that data or is it just a circular argument? The results of the Breckland Survey (Suffolk) suggest a correlation between archaeology and artefact scatters. However, the results of the Shapwick Project suggest that the date of material on the surface may not always be a rel...
