The Test Lab

Try new ways to read a measurement, compare evidence or move between a study and its calculator.

Optionscandidate

From the page to the right calculator

Try two opening layouts with real converter and Seked presets.

Visual reference: diagram-design

Infographicprototype

Three Greek feet, one ruler

Compare three source-bound estimates at a common scale.

Visual reference: Flint

Page proposalcandidate

Follow a claim back to its source

Trace a Menkaure dimension through the published figures, the model and the calculation.

Visual reference: diagram-design

Infographicprototype

Four sides around one mean

See which reconstructed Great Pyramid sides fall above and below Petrie’s mean.

Visual reference: Flint

Library structureidea

Browse by kind of measure

Start with a rod, plot, weight, vessel or clock and find its corresponding units.

Comparison pageidea

Compare pyramid profiles at one scale

Compare matched base and height profiles with the source and model stated for each.

Library structureidea

Reading trails through the library

Follow a question from an object or monument to a unit, a case study and the sources.

Visual reference: diagram-design

Article sectionidea

Show how many digits the evidence supports

Try a reusable panel for historical display rounding, source uncertainty and working arithmetic.

Visual reference: Flint

Interactiveidea

Try a second assumption

Keep the source input fixed and test whether two proposed models still make different predictions.

Source register viewidea

Browse sources by the job they do

Group sources by survey, catalogue, text or interpretation and show where each is used.

Project status

See research, visual design and quality acceptance as separate measures.

Experimentprototype

One base, many possible units

Explore how an assumed ancient count changes the unit inferred from a fixed surveyed length.
