Dark Heritage Prospection ‐ Mapping the Treblinka II Extermination Camp Using a Magnetometer Survey and Integrated Archival Sources
The history of Nazi German extermination camps has, until recently, relied primarily on eyewitness testimony. Very few official documents detailing the facilities survived the war due to the special operation ‘Sonderaktion 1005’, dedicated to hiding their existence and extent. This article presents the results from a study that applied an approach designed for investigating places of sensitive heritage. It integrates non‐invasive survey technique…
Othala -Tracing Hidden Archaeological Landscape of Arnafjörður
Multi-method archaeo-geophysical survey in Westfjords (Iceland), Magnetic survey & DTM successfully revealed archaeological features, Magnetic method turned out to be more effective than GPR
Geophysical insights into soil preservation and Neolithic settlement in Kuyavia's glacial till landscapes (Poland)
Buried soil topography determines longhouse preservation, Longhouse preservation challenges detection via MAG, (Di)electric contrasts facilitate GPR and RES survey results
Understanding the Anomaly
Roman amphitheatre in Romania surveyed with Earth Resistance and GPR, Arena’s infrastructure and later constructions were recorded at different depths
Tangled in linear anomalies
Geophysical surveys of a National Trust property investigate a potential Roman villa, Integration of two geophysical datasets reveals complex subsurface features
Roman auxiliary fort in Pojejena (Caraș-Severin County, Romania). The results of non-invasive and archival research (2017–2019)
A non-destructive survey conducted in 2017–2019 in the proximity of the auxiliary fort brought forth new data regarding the military base on the bank of the Danube, in the frontier zone between the Roman provinces of Moesia Superior and Dacia Inferior. It became clear that the previously acknowledged large stone fort was preceded by an unknown small earth-and-timber fort likely dated to the late 1st – early 2nd century. Analysis of the internal p…
Geophysical Investigations within the Latus Dextrum of Porolissum Fort, Northwestern Romania—The Layout of a Roman Edifice
This paper summarizes the results of a recent geophysical investigation carried out at Porolissum, which is considered to be one of the most significant Roman sites in Romania. The geophysical survey was carried out within the latus dextrum of the fort, which is the same location that had been the subject of earlier geophysical surveys as well as older archaeological excavations (1970s) that had uncovered a multiroom building. A cesium vapor tota…
History and Archaeology in Discourse on the Dernberg–Reconstructing the Historical Landscape of a Medieval Motte-and-Bailey Castle and Deserted Village
Investigating deserted medieval castles and villages in remote rural areas paired with a scarcity of meaningful written sources is a challenging task that can be significantly enhanced by the use of non-invasive archaeological prospection methods. Furthermore, the interpolation of stratigraphic relationships among maps by analysing paths and field boundaries, as performed by Klaus Schwarz in the 1980s, can also contribute significantly. Thus, in …
Reinterpreting a “Roman villa” site
The article presents the results of archaeological prospection of site Dračevica (Donji Radišići, Ljubuški municipality, West Herzegovina Canton, Bosnia and Herzegovina) which was partly excavated in the late 19th century and so far has been interpreted as a Roman villa, possibly with a special function (road station) and a name attested in ancient sources ( Bigeste ). Through the use of various nondestructive prospecting methods (aerial photogra…
Vanishing Ancient Landscape
Scattered settlement in the territory of the Roman colony of Narona in the Teskera and Hardomilje microregion (Bosnia and Herzegovina).– Magnetic and earth resistance survey detects poorly preserved Roman remains.– Impact of agriculture on the destruction of ancient landscape
Non‐destructive research in the surroundings of the Roman Fort Tibiscum (today Romania)
The Roman military fort Tibiscum which existed from the beginning of the second up to the third quarter of the third century ad was manned by various auxiliary units, including Syrian Palmyrenians and Germanic Vindelici. Its irregular shape and relatively big surface, usual for the forts of that type, as well as not having entirely clear settlement structures visible on both sides of the Timiş River drew attention of many scholars. The non‐destru…
