Fig. 1 – Hellenistic settlement distribution and visibility map (based on Marchi, Sabbatini 1996, 107; graphic elaboration by the author). The raster base map is the shaded relief calculated from the 10 m-resolution DEM named TINITALY/01 (Tarquini et al. 2007, 2012; Tarquini, Nannipieri 2017). Figure by the author.

Fig. 2 – Kernel density surface calculated for the Hellenistic settlements. The legend indicates the number of estimated sites in a circle of one square km from each cell (resolution 10×10 m). The raster base map is the shaded relief calculated from the 10 m-resolution DEM named TINITALY/01 (Tarquini et al. 2007, 2012; Tarquini, Nannipieri 2017). Figure by the author.

Fig. 3 – Trend surface created for missing site allocation. The legend indicates the probability for the allocation of missing sites and ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 1. The raster base map is the shaded relief calculated from the 10 m-resolution DEM named TINITALY/01 (Tarquini et al. 2007, 2012; Tarquini, Nannipieri 2017). Figure by the author.

Fig. 4 – Trend surface created for the allocation of missing sites (probability from 0 to 1), and the simulated “complete” early colonial settlement distribution (262 recorded settlements plus 600 missing sites, therefore 862 sites in total). The raster base map is the shaded relief calculated from the 10 m-resolution DEM named TINITALY/01 (Tarquini et al. 2007, 2012; Tarquini, Nannipieri 2017). Figure by the author.

Fig. 5 – Point-density analysis of the “complete” early colonial distribution (262 recorded sites plus 600 missing sites, therefore 862 sites in total). The legend indicates the number of sites located in a circle of one square km from each cell (resolution 10×10 m). The raster base map is the shaded relief calculated from the 10 m-resolution DEM named TINITALY/01 (Tarquini et al. 2007, 2012; Tarquini, Nannipieri 2017). Figure by the author.
