Finding Ashmounds: Identifying Large Buried Homogenous Anthropogenic Features with ERT
Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) is commonly used in geophysical and environmental surveys because it allows for rapid and high-quality resolution of large depositional features over a wide area. It is generally less able to resolve small anthropogenic features, however, so it has had a slower uptake among archaeologists despite several promising applications over the last two decades. Traditional soil resistivity (ER) surveys are generally…
Localizing the Different Faces of Archaeological Landscapes in South India
Siruthavoor is a village situated 40 km south of Chennai in south India. The people of this village share their landscape with archaeological remains of south India’s past, including Iron Age–Early Historic burials and medieval temples. As an archaeologist, having witnessed and been both an indirect and direct participant in the changing reactions, actions, and perceptions of the community towards these monuments, I use this paper to explore the …
Can thetinaihelp understand the Iron Age Early Historic landscape of Tamilnadu
The Iron Age-Early Historic landscape of southern India has been subject to scholarly study and scrutiny for over a century now. There is much variation in the chronology, typology and understanding of sites from this period. This paper looks at the habitation, burials and habitation-cum-burial sites of the Iron Age-Early Historic period, from the northern part of Tamilnadu, India. Historians have also used the Sangam texts of classical Tamil, wh…
Situating megalithic burials in the Iron Age-Early Historic landscape of southern India
The megalithic burials of southern India-a wonderfully varied set of monuments-have long needed a chronology and a context. Broadly contemporary with the Roman and Sasanian empires, these dolmens, cairns and cists have continually raised contradictions with their material contents. The authors attack the problem using luminescence applied to pottery at the site of Siruthavoor in north-east Tamilnadu. Although sharing material culture, this first …
