In this paper, we discuss different applications of time information in predictive modelling within archaeology. Specifically, we concentrate on two aspects: how the time flow can be used in predictive modelling; and how the information due to different time ages can be used to combine the results within the various archaeological periods into an overall output. Our case study is represented by a predictive model estimating the archaeological potential of an urban area, and the role of time information within it. The intent of this paper is to show, by virtue of the issues, handled in the case study, how different aspects of information due to time can be integrated into predictive modelling. The archaeological potential is intended as the likelihood of the presence of a more or less significant archaeological stratification.

Abstract
In this paper, we discuss different applications of time information in predictive modelling within archaeology. Specifically, we concentrate on two aspects: how the time flow can be used in predictive modelling; and how the information due to different time ages can be used to combine the results within the various archaeological periods into an overall output. Our case study is represented by a predictive model estimating the archaeological potential of an urban area, and the role of time information within it. The intent of this paper is to show, by virtue of the issues, handled in the case study, how different aspects of information due to time can be integrated into predictive modelling. The archaeological potential is intended as the likelihood of the presence of a more or less significant archaeological stratification.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
