Description
Discussion
• The results of the regression appear to indicate that Copan was not a low-density urban system, despite the slight positive relationship between areal extent and population; the relationship was not strong enough to be significant.
• Given that a trend was still present, it is possible a larger (or rather, more complete) dataset could dispel the ambiguity this situation creates. The sample size used here (20 settlements) is smaller than those used in past studies, and accounted for visible structures and features only.
