5.3 Test the given provenance groups
Because protocol 3 uses both geochemical and petrographic information, we can test the provenance assigned to the amphorae samples.
prot3_tests <- test_groups(prot3_2d$dist_matrix,
factor_list$ProvGroup)
#> [1] "initiating test batch..."
#> [1] "vegan::anosim done."
#> [1] "vegan::betadisper done."
#> [1] "vegan::permutest done."
#> [1] "vegan::adonis done."
#> [1] "Test batch completed."
These tests were explained in protocol 1.
