Abstract

Connections between northern Iberia and western France around the Bay of Biscay during the Chalcolithic, Early Bronze Age, and Middle Bronze Age are addressed in this article through a multivariate cluster analysis of a dataset of 1273 metal finds, comprising 4554 metal artefacts grouped into five multiregional clusters with distinctive distributions, chronologies, content, and contexts. Changes in distribution and chronology show that metalwork from faraway regions was deposited in similar ways, reflecting changing patterns of interregional connectivity. Changes in context and content suggest social transformations. The clustering method known as Latent Class Analysis is presented here in the hope that it will be applicable to other datasets elsewhere in the world.

伊比利亚北部和法国西部之间的连通性(公元前2900-1100 cal):比斯开湾金属制品的流动，多变量聚类模型

本文通过对1273个金属发现数据集的多元聚类分析，探讨了比斯开湾周围伊比利亚北部和法国西部在铜器时代、早期青铜器时代和中期青铜器时代之间的联系，其中包括4554件金属文物，这些金属文物被分为五个多区域集群，具有不同的分布、年代、内容和背景。分布和年代的变化表明，来自遥远地区的金属制品以相似的方式沉积，反映了区域间连通性的变化模式。背景和内容的变化表明社会转型。本文提出了一种被称为潜在类分析的聚类方法，希望它能适用于世界上其他地方的其他数据集。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
