- Abstract:
- The use of geophysical methods has become an integral part of the work at all stages of archaeological research. Geophysics contribute to the efficient and rapid detection of buried objects.
One of the effective methods for mapping archaeological sites is an areal magnetic survey that reveals anomalies associated with the residual magnetization of such objects. To study the deep structure of complex objects in conditions of variable relief, the method of electrical tomography (ERT) has been well recommended.
Geophysical work was carried out within the boundaries of the settlement of Khayrabadtepa, which is a monument of the Kushan period in the territory of Northern Bactria. The settlement is located 1 km southwest of the city of Angor, 30 km northwest of the city of Termez. - Download:
