Usually, monuments epigraphs keep a lot of personal and social information about a buried person. This general information may help to better understand the community or residents of a specific area. This is especially true in the case of Klaipėda region and its native population. The results of analysis of survived epigraphs of old Evangelico-Lutheran cemeteries in Klaipėda region are presented in this article. The research was done using social statistical methods, which are usually used to characterize social community. The obtained results allow modeling the stratification organization of former population.

ABSTRACTModern information technologies (IT) provide progressive tools and methods for data collection, storage, processing, and publication. The essence of historical research is to synthesize new information from different types of historical sources. The analysis of scientific publications proved that IT are still rarely applied to historical research. Several reasons may account for the state of things. One of them is related to rather conservative attitudes of researchers in the field of IT towards collaboration, which also accounts for the absence of specialized software for historical research. The article introduces IT tools and methods which can be used in historical research in a popular way, and the authors expect to promote inter-disciplinarity in the field of history. KEY WORDS: necropolistics, geo-information system, data analysis.
ANOTACIJAŠiuolaikinės informacinės technologijos (IT) suteikia pažangius duomenų kaupimo, saugojimo, apdorojimo ir pateikimo įrankius bei metodus. Istorinių tyrimų esmė yra naujos informacijos sintezė iš skirtingos prigimties istorinių šaltinių. Atlikta mokslinių publikacijų analizė rodo vis dar retą IT taikymą istorijos mokslo srityje. Įvardijamos kelios galimos tokios padėties priežastys -tai gana konservatyvūs IT ir istorijos srities mokslininkų požiūriai dėl galimo abipusio bendradarbiavimo, o tai lemia istoriniams tyrimams skirtos specializuotos programinės įrangos nebuvimą. Šiame straipsnyje pristatomi istoriniuose tyrimuose taikytini IT metodai ir įrankiai, siekiant paskatinti tarpdalykiškumą istorijos srityje. PAgRINDINIAI žODžIAI: nekropolistika, geoinformacinė sistema, duomenų analizė.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
