description | A magnetic and Ground Penetrating Radar joint survey was carried out in the
framework of the R.I.M.E.M. project that has the aim of supporting the
archaeological prospections and drive the selection of the excavation areas
related to the Late Roman Period and Early Middle Ages in the Central and
Southern Italy. In particular, this papers deals with the magnetic surveys
acquired near "Madonna della Valle" and GPR and magnetic joint surveys
carried out in "Monastero"site. Most of magnetic maps carried out in
"Madonna della Valle" site shown the absence of structured magnetic
anomalies, despite of the presence of archaeological signs. Several
hypothesis were given to explain this evidence.
<br><br>
Joint interpretation performed in "Monastero" site shown more intense
magnetic anomalies related with shallower reflections due to probably to
buried pipes. Other reflections are related with magnetic anomalies
compatible with archaeological targets, but some significant reflections do
not correspond to any magnetic anomaly, indicating magnetic method could be
"blind" respect the archaeological target.
<br><br>
New field surveys including the electrical resistivity tomography could be
carried out in order to overcome these acquisition and interpretation
difficulties. |
