Investigating Wiradjuri marara (carved trees or dendroglyphs) and dhabuganha (burials) in the Central Tablelands, southeastern Australia
Marara (carved trees, dendroglyphs or tapholgyphs) are a distinct part of Wiradjuri Country in southeastern Australia. Each marara displays a unique muyalaang (tree carving) that a Wiradjuri person carved into the outer surface of a tree after removing bark. Marara mark the dhabuganha (burials) of Wiradjuri men of high standing, representing part of traditional cultural practices that extend into the deep past. Yet, the meaning of these sacred lo…
Integrating electrical resistivity tomography and ground‐penetrating radar methods to map archaeological walls near northern Ishtar gate, ancient Babylon city, Iraq
Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) were collected on the eastern side of the northern Ishtar gate in ancient Babylon, Iraq, to locate the palace wall and other surrounding walls. Due to the presence of a low resistivity (highly conductive) top layer associated with brick rubble and other debris, the GPR reflection profiles show a high‐energy attenuation, but a series of processing and filtering steps produc…

Determination of the ceiling, floor, and the void of the hominid cave.– Using time-depth adjustments to correct floor position.– Statistical method to determine the cave void and real floor depth.– Creation of a 3D representation for the cave
Using Ground-Penetrating Radar to Analyze Interior Details of a Hohokam Dwelling to Test Ideas About Cultural Change and Community Dynamics in 10th Century Southern Arizona, USA
Integration of two-dimensional and three-dimensional images can define house features in buried dwellings.– Placement and number of interior features allows for determination of duration of occupancy.– Results of many GPR studies of houses of a specific age over a broad landscape can test ideas about community dynamics in the ancient Hohokam world
An Experimental Use of Ground-Penetrating Radar to Identify Human Footprints
Features like human footprints can be identified in two-dimensional radar profiles.– Amplitude variations associated with footprints have been demonstrated with slices.– Horizon detection methods are another avenue for detecting subsurface footprints
Creating and renewing identity and value through the use of non‐invasive archaeological methods
In 2010, Elders from Mapoon watched “Time Team” and saw ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and other non‐invasive scientific methods being used to identify cultural features on archaeological sites. This led Elders to express their desire for such techniques, particularly GPR, to be brought on country to assist with documenting and protecting cultural heritage sites. This paper explores how Mapoon families have employed these techniques in archaeolog…
The Transition from Hunting–Gathering to Food Production in the Gamo Highlands of Southern Ethiopia
Over three field seasons between 2007 and 2012, we excavated three caves—Mota, Tuwatey, and Gulo—situated at an average elevation of 2,084 m above sea level in the cool and moist Boreda Gamo Highlands of southwestern Ethiopia. Anthropogenic deposits in these caves date from the Middle to Late Holocene (ca. 6000 to 100 BP) and provide excellent preservation of material culture, fauna, flora, and human skeletal remains from which to investigate cha…
Reimagining life and death
Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and magnetic surveys were conducted on 13 earth mounds within Mapoon Aboriginal Lands, western Cape York Peninsula, Queensland. Detailed analysis of GPR profiles and amplitude maps of the mounds were compared to those from previously recorded, known burials at the Mapoon Mission Cemetery. Based on these models, burials were identified in ten of the 13 mounds. Both European‐style (coffin) and traditional burials were…
Integration of GPR and magnetics to study the interior features and history of earth mounds, Mapoon, Queensland, Australia
The nature of earth mounds and their function over time in northern Australia is of ongoing academic debate. Here we present how the integration of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and magnetic data, after being adjusted for surface elevation changes, was used to analyse the interior features and objects within six earth mounds in Mapoon, western Cape York, Australia. These geophysical techniques were merged and interpreted jointly to produce image…
Understanding Cultural History Using Ground-Penetrating Radar Mapping of Unmarked Graves in the Mapoon Mission Cemetery, Western Cape York, Queensland, Australia
An Upper Palaeolithic Landscape Analysis of Coastal Portugal Using Ground‐penetrating Radar
Ground‐penetrating mapping radar allows for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of ancient landscapes by interpreting geological horizons associated with archaeological sites. When the geological framework of a site can be placed in both time and space, ancient environments and people's usage and adaptation to landscapes can be studied. In coastal Portugal late Ice Age people discarded stone tools within aeolian sands that were deposited directl…
Geophysical Archaeology Research Agendas for the Future
Archaeological geophysics research and its applications to archaeology are today positioned to move in a number of directions, building on successes in the past few decades. The basics of data acquisition, processing and interpretation are now commonplace, and along with a variety of new geophysical tools and software, readily available to most dedicated practitioners. It is now time to move beyond the basics to develop new areas of research for …
Ground-penetrating radar for anthropological research
During its development years, geophysical survey has served field archaeology by defining possible sites underground, prior to excavation or preservation. Now we can see the art taking off as a research method in its own right. After summarising some recent research applications of magnetic mapping, the author gives us three case studies from USA and Jordan, where ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has produced new interpretations of prehistory and h…
The Palaeo-Environmental Contexts of Three Possible Phoenician Anchorages in Portugal
The 2002 Joint Expedition of the Institute of Nautical Archaeology and the Centro Nacional de Arqueologia Náutica e Subaquática examined Phoenician maritime involvement in Portugal, combining archaeological, geological and geophysical surveys of former coastal sites—Santa Olaia, Abul and Castro Marim—where previous excavations have uncovered Phoenician remains. Significant geomorphic evolution of bay-head delta and estuarine settings masks the fa…
Electromagnetic conductivity mapping for site prediction in meandering river floodplains
Spatial mapping using electromagnetic (EM) conductivity can quickly define past sedimentary environments within meandering river floodplain settings and, most important, those most likely to include archaeological materials. Natural levee and uplifted fluvial terrace environments would have been the most likely areas for people to place permanent settlements, as these topographically high areas would have remained dry during most annual floods. T…
Ground-penetrating Radar for Archaeological Mapping
Innovative ground‐penetrating radar methods for archaeological mapping
The three‐dimensional complexity of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) data can be one of its strengths, as multiple factors are included in “cubes” of radar wave reflections. These parameters are time that can be converted to depth, wide bands of wave frequency that are capable of differing feature resolution and wave amplitudes that are a function of material differences at buried interfaces. When GPR data are filtered and corrected to enhance aspe…

Ground-Penetrating Radar Techniques to Discover and Map Historic Graves
Comparison of seismic reflection and ground‐penetrating radar imaging at the controlled archaeological test site, Champaign, Illinois
Shallow seismic reflection and ground‐penetrating radar images were collected at a replicated burial mound in the Controlled Archaeological Test Site (CATS) in Champaign, Illinois. The CATS mound contains a pig burial within a wood‐lined crypt at a depth of 1.6–2.4 m. Seismic reflection data were collected from two different energy sources: a small (0.5 kg) hammer for an impulsive source, and a vibrator for a frequency swept source. Seismic data …

Subsurface mapping of a buried paleoindian living surface, Lime Creek site, Nebraska, USA
Analysis of continuous core and drill cuttings from drill holes was compared and correlated to data obtained from bore hole geophysical logs to obtain subsurface stratigraphic information at the Lime Creek Paleoindian site, southern Nebraska. The analysis of these bore holes indicated that sedimentary layers and a significant buried soil horizon could be correlated throughout the preserved terrace fill at the site. Geophysical information obtaine…
Ground-penetrating Radar Techniques and Three-dimensional Computer Mapping in the American Southwest
New techniques of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) acquisition and computer processing were tested at archaeological sites in the American Southwest and found to be highly effective in producing images of buried archaeological features. These new methods, especially amplitude slice-maps, were combined with more standard data processing and interpretation techniques and tested at sites with little or no surface expression. In southern Arizona, numer…
Velocity Analysis in Archaeological Ground-Penetrating Radar Studies
In ground-penetrating radar (GPR) investigations of archeological sites, the accurate conversion of two-way travel times to distance or depth can be made only if radar wave velocities are known. Because radar data are typically collected in a manner that does not facilitate the determination of velocity, special efforts must be given to measure the speed of radar waves in the subsurface. Field tests can be performed on objects at known depths whe…
Archaeological evidence for dating the Loma Caldera eruption, Ceren, El Salvador
A Classic Period agricultural village in El Salvador was partially destroyed and encased in pyroclastic debris during the eruption of Loma Caldera about A.D. 590. The eruption was phreatomagmatic in nature, depositing alternating units of “muddy” pyroclastic surge beds and units of air fall lapilli, pumice, and volcanic bombs. This ephemeral eruptive left only a partially eroded collapsed tephra ring. The eruption began with earth tremors and pos…
