Sixteen independent tests of the relationship between technological adap tation and settlement patterns provided material for testing sample methods and the interdependence of cases or Galton's problem. Our hypothesis that societies dependent upon agriculture tend to have fixed settlement patterns was strongly confirmed. Linked pair tests for Galton's problem indicated that sample neighbor scores were frequently similar, and we con cluded that these traits were hyperdiffusionally associated. A test for differences between sampling methods showed no significance, suggesting that sampling strategies (simple or stratified) do not significantly alter correlations. An attempt was made to test Galton's problem. Correlation magnitude differences between linked pair alignment strips of different widths were used. No significant differences were noted. Finally, an ap pendix provides sixteen samples arranged in linked pair alignments for future research(ers
