The Ukrainian Village Across Four Centuries

A schematic central-Ukrainian village (село) rebuilt in 3D for any year from 1600 to 1914: land, crops, wells (криниці), mills (млини) and population. Drag to look around, scroll or pinch to zoom, use the year slider under the view. Typical reconstruction, not a particular village.

Experiment: carrying capacity vs the logistic curve

Question: how many people can the village lands feed with the technology of a chosen year, and does the S-shaped logistic curve really describe how a village fills that capacity? A stochastic person-by-person birth-death simulation is compared with the analytic solution.

The science

Quality

High is the default on every device. Low renders fewer plants and villagers and no soft shadows.
