A statistical analysis of text A of the Wilbour Papyrus shows that the pattern of landholdings surrounding localities well reflects the population inhabiting settlements and allows their categorization without preconceived idea. The resulting typology fits only in part with classifications relying on administrative considerations, the central place theory or archeological criteria. Urban features are not limited to regional capitals. Main and secondary urban centers are distinguished by a hinterland of small localities; this hinterland is exclusive to each main urban center but shared in secondary urban centers. Small rural settlements are not homogenous and can be distinguished according to their agricultural activity, particularly cattle and horse breeding, and the locally predominant landholding institution.

埃及中部拉美赛德的定居点类型。对威尔伯纸莎草纸的分析

对 Wilbour Papyrus 文本 A 的统计分析表明，围绕地点的土地所有权模式很好地反映了居住在聚居地的人口，并允许他们在没有先入为主的想法的情况下进行分类。由此产生的类型学仅部分符合依赖于行政考虑、中心地点理论或考古标准的分类。城市特色不仅限于区域首府。主要和次要城市中心以小地方的腹地为特征；这个腹地是每个主要城市中心独有的，但在二级城市中心共享。小型农村住区不是同质的，可以根据其农业活动，特别是牛和马的养殖，以及当地占主导地位的土地持有制度加以区分。
