Provides the data sets used to build the 'ArchaeoPhases' vignettes.  The data sets were formerly distributed with 'ArchaeoPhases', however they exceed current CRAN policy for package size.

The archdata package provides several types of data that are typically used in archaeological research. It provides all of the data sets used in "Quantitative Methods in Archaeology Using R" by David L Carlson, one of the Cambridge Manuals in Archaeology.

Methods to analyse spatial units in archaeology from the relationships between refitting fragmented objects scattered in these units (e.g. stratigraphic layers). Graphs are used to model archaeological observations. The package is mainly based on the 'igraph' package for graph analysis. Functions can: 1) create, manipulate, visualise, and simulate fragmentation graphs, 2) measure the cohesion and admixture of archaeological spatial units, and 3) characterise the topology of a specific set of refitting relationships. A series of published empirical datasets is included. Documentation about 'archeofrag' is provided by a vignette and by the accompanying scientific papers: Plutniak (2021, Journal of Archaeological Science, <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2021.105501>) and Plutniak (2022, Journal of Open Source Software, <doi:10.21105/joss.04335>). This package is complemented by the 'archeofrag.gui' R package, a companion GUI application available at <https://analytics.huma-num.fr/Sebastien.Plutniak/archeofrag/>.

A 'Shiny' application to access the functionalities and datasets of the 'archeofrag' package for spatial analysis in archaeology from refitting data. Quick and seamless exploration of archaeological refitting datasets, focusing on physical refits only. Features include: built-in documentation and convenient workflow, plot generation and exports, anomaly detection in the spatial distribution of refitting connection, exploration of spatial units merging solutions, simulation of archaeological site formation processes, support for parallel computing, R code generation to re-execute simulations and ensure reproducibility, code generation for the 'openMOLE' model exploration software. A demonstration of the app is available at <https://analytics.huma-num.fr/Sebastien.Plutniak/archeofrag/>.
