সারসংক্ষেপ	Space syntax is a quantitative method that analyzes the spatial configuration of buildings and settlements to understand social organization and movement patterns. Developed by Bill Hillier and Julienne Hanson in the 1980s, space syntax measures how open or segregated spaces are, and how these properties relate to social behavior and cultural values. The method reveals distinctions between public and private spaces, movement corridors, and the degree of accessibility within architectural layouts.	Viewshed analysis examines what is visible from specific locations or within a defined area using digital elevation models (DEMs) and geographic information systems (GIS). Pioneered by David Wheatley in the 1990s, the method reveals how landscape features (hilltops, valleys, water sources) controlled visibility and movement. Archaeologists use viewshed analysis to understand settlement placement, ritual monument visibility, and territorial organization in prehistoric and historic landscapes.
