Connectedness feature reference
The largest PageRank score found among the focal place's large operational neighbours.
Stored model field:
large_place_max_pagerank
For local neighbours that meet the large-place threshold, take the maximum weighted place-graph PageRank; use zero when none qualify.
The focal place is connected to at least one more-central large place.
These descriptive statistics use the current labelled cohort after aliases have been collapsed to one row per MANTO place.
| Group | N | Minimum | Q1 | Median | Mean | Q3 | Maximum |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All labelled places | 255 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.002 | 0.003 | 0.010 |
| Survives | 204 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.002 | 0.002 | 0.010 |
| Does not survive | 51 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.002 | 0.003 | 0.010 |
Examples are descriptive checks on the calculated feature. Their outcome labels report what Pausanias says; they do not establish that the feature caused survival or abandonment.

|---|---|---|---|
| π Argos (city) | 8228853 | 0.010 | Survives |
| π Brauron (Attica) | 11309268 | 0.010 | Survives |
| π Chersonesos (Thrace) | 8254467 | 0.010 | Survives |
| π Delphi (Phocis) | 8253972 | 0.010 | Survives |
| π Elaia (Lydia) | 10149401 | 0.010 | Survives |
| π Ephesos (Asia Minor) | 8254020 | 0.010 | Survives |

Its current standardized coefficient is -0.131, pointing toward does not survive. This means that a one-standard-deviation increase changes the fitted log odds in that direction while the other included features are held fixed.
Because the connectedness features are correlated and the model's out-of-fold performance is weak, this is a conditional associationβnot a standalone ranking, causal effect, or historical explanation.
