Digital Classicist & Institute of Classical Studies Seminar 2012
Friday June 8th at 16:30
Room G37, Senate House, Malet Street, London, WC1E 7HU
Jari Pakkanen (Royal Holloway)
Pattern detection in archaeological data: quantum modelling, Bronze Age
Aegean lead weights and Greek Classical Doric architecture
Can statistically significant patterns be detected in Late Bronze Age
Aegean balance weights made of lead? How should we approach the question
of what type of a design system the fifth-century BC Greek architects
used for Doric temples? Is it possible to say whether one of the several
modern interpretations is more likely than another? Kendall's quantum
modelling and Monte Carlo computer simulations may help in finding the
answers.
ALL WELCOME
The seminar will be followed by wine and refreshments.
