Alsacian castles by year of building

Description

The data were collected by J.M. Rudrauf on Alsacian castles whose building year is known (even approximatively). On each castle, he measured 4 structural parameters on a sample of building stones.

These data are about the same castles as in castles.dated data set.

Usage

Format

castles is a list of 46 data frames. Each of these data frames matches with one year (between 1136 and 1510) and contains measures on one or several castles which have been built since that year.

Each data frame has 5 to 101 rows (stones) and 5 columns: height, width, edging, boss (numeric) and castle (factor).
