Connections between Statistics and Archaeology have always appeared very fruitful. The objective of this paper is to offer an outlook of some statistical techniques that are being developed in the most recent years and that can be of interest for archaeologists in the short run.

It is common in econometric applications that several hypothesis tests are carried out at the same time. The problem then becomes how to decide which hypotheses to reject, accounting for the multitude of tests. In this paper, we suggest a stepwise multiple testing procedure which asymptotically...

Consider the problem of testing k hypotheses simultaneously. In this paper, we discuss finite and large sample theory of stepdown methods that provide control of the familywise error rate (FWE). In order to improve upon the Bonferroni method or Holm's (1979) stepdown method, Westfall and Young...
