![]() ![]() ![]() Given the success of this analysis using low resolution data, the methods used in this thesis have applications to a broad range of archaeological projects. Locating meaningful patterns in the site’s chipped stone assemblage is especially valuable because, unlike in many intra-site spatial analysis projects, the spatial resolution of the data is less than ideal. Using the expanded database and GIS this thesis identifies multiple spatial patterns in the assemblage with implications on the lifeways practiced at ‘Ais Giorkis. ![]() Previous work on the assemblage from 1997 through 2004 had attempted spatial analysis using traditional statistical methods and found no patterning (O'Horo 2008). This thesis is an intra-site spatial analysis of the chipped stone assemblage recovered between 19 from the site using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. Krittou Marottou Ais Giorkis (‘Ais Giorkis) is an Aceramic Neolithic site, occupied approximately 9,500 cal B.P., and located in the western foothills of the Troodos Mountains on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. ![]()
