Distance to Coast | Mycenaean Atlas Project

Sites and nearest shoreline

Each ochre connection runs from an Atlas site to the shoreline point used for its recorded coast distance.

Distribution statistics

Distances are in meters.

Sample number: 19
Mean: 12,597.58
Median: 7,774.60
Sample SD: 11,999.70
Sample variance: 143,992,784.77
Skew: 0.8910
Kurtosis: 2.6336
Excess kurtosis: -0.3664

The distribution is moderately skewed. The longer tail is toward greater shore distances.

Reading the map

The map makes the distance measurement inspectable rather than merely tabular.

Click a site diamond for its place key, name, and shore distance. Click the corresponding shoreline circle for the measured coastal point. The connecting line is a visual expression of the stored site-to-shore relationship; it is not a reconstructed ancient route.

Frequency of shore distances

Histogram of recorded nearest-shore distances for the returned sites.

Sites in distance order

Observed distances from low to high, with the exponential rank fit retained from the earlier report.

f(x) = e^(0.250 × x + 6.499) · r = 0.93688
