Fig. 3

Comparing the rhyme patterns across different reconstruction systems. The figure shows three subsets of 100 characters each as they occur in the rhyme data of the Book of Odes; both include missing characters and the respective vowel readings. While a definite structural similarity can be detected, we also find remarkable differences. In the figure, each cell corresponds to one reading for a given character in the row. Since the characters are too small to be readable, we offer a high-resolution version of this figure in the Additional file 1: supplementary material
