Archaeological predictive modelling unites spatial analysis and the methods of geographic information systems (GIS) up with spatial (landscape) archaeology. Archaeological predictive models (APM) are used in several academic and practical applications to model and verify archaeological hypotheses about the relationship between humans and the landscape. Selected mathematical aspects of APM creation and analytical overlay operations are described in this paper as well as an APM application in an archaeological spatial analysis. One of the key problems in APM creation is the uncertainty of input data and their modelled parameters. We approach this issue using fuzzy logic. After reviewing the basic concept of fuzzy sets, the aggregation functions and their influence on APM creation are described. Validation of APM, although necessary for practical application, is often overlooked. Basic mathematical principles for selected methods of APM validation are provided here and suggested validation methods were applied in order to evaluate fuzzy deductive and inductive-deductive predictive models from southern parts of Central Slovakia
