Abstract: This paper explores the application of statistical pattern-recognition methods, discriminant analysis in particular, to the problems of classifying and of dating remains of Byzantine brick construction in Constantinople and Asia Minor. The technique is introduced and compared to other relevant multivariate statistical methods; results of analysis are presented and discussed; substantive conclusions are drawn; and the strengths and weaknesses of the approach are critically discussed.
