Designing the underworld in Teotihuacan
‘Illuminating’ the interior of Kukulkan's Pyramid, Chichén Itzá, Mexico, by means of a non-conventional ERT geophysical survey
D electrical prospection in the archaeological site of El Pahñú, Hidalgo State, Central Mexico
Geophysical study of a Pre‐Hispanic lakeshore settlement, Chiconahuapan Lake, Mexico
Results of a combined geophysical survey carried out along the northern shore of Lake Chiconahuapan in central Mexico are presented. The site contains a series of mounds found between the lakeshore and the ceremonial centre named La Campana‐Tepozoco Hill. Those features are the remains of habitation complexes built by the lake residents about 1100 years ago. Archaeological excavations performed towards the northeastern margins of the lake uncover…
Shallow geophysical survey at the archaeological site of San Miguel Tocuila, Basin of Mexico
D modelling of magnetic data from an archaeological site in north-western Tlaxcala state, Mexico
Detection of possible archaeological pathways in central Mexico through digital processing of remote sensing images
Many spaceborne multispectral images have been developed recently and applied in archaeology as they provide useful data, which can be digitized, manipulated and integrated. Principal component decomposition (PCD), texture segmentation and linear pattern detection through spatial filtering are useful techniques that provide a new way of processing satellite images in addition to traditional techniques. Such methods may supply more accurate inform…
Use of geophysical methods in urban archaeological prospection
The purpose of this investigation was to locate the foundations of an ancient wing of the Basilica de Nuestra Señora de la Salud, which, according to historical documents, was part of this 16th‐century structure. The site was located within the southern vestibule of the Basilica. Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical magnetic gradient (VMG) field methods were employed. The geophysical survey consisted of 20 GPR profiles measured in the stud…
Empleo de los métodos geofísicos en la prospección arqueológica urbana
El objetivo de este estudio es la localización de los restos de la construcción de una antigua nave anexa al edificio principal de la actual iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Salud construida a mediados del siglo XVI en la ciudad de Patzcuaro, Michoacán. Se aplicaron dos métodos de prospección geofísica: el magnético, en la modalidad de gradiente vertical, y el denominado Radar de Penetración Terrestre (GPR). Las imágenes de GPR definieron un refle…
Site Characterization by Geophysical Methods in The Archaeological Zone of Teotihuacan, Mexico
Application of the fast fourier transform to interpret geoelectric anomalies
A Magnetic Survey Over La Maja, an Archaeological Site in Northern Spain
A Roman archaeological site in northern Spain (La Maja, province of La Rioja) includes pottery workshops, part of an important ceramic industry that developed from about the first century BC to the first century AD. A geophysical study was planned to determine the extent of the industrial complex in the vicinity of an excavated kiln. Magnetic observations were done on a grid of 30 × 36m, with a sampling interval of 1m. Two dipolar‐shaped anomalie…
Caves and Geophysics
This article describes the result of a geophysical survey in the vicinity of the most important construction of the ancient Prehispanic urban centre of Teotihuacan, Mexico. The survey was intended to locate a system of tunnels under the city. It is proposed that the system was originally dug to obtain construction materials, but afterwards it was used for ideological needs
