Abstract
P005 GPR AND ERT – INTEGRATED GEOPHYSICAL METHODS IN ARCHAEOLOGY Abstract 1 This work is a case history about an archaeological survey with two geophysical integrated methods: Ground Penetrating Radar and Electrical Resistivity Tomography. The principal objective of our research was to detect the ruins of a medieval castle in Friuli a north-east region of Italy. Introduction Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a high resolution electromagnetic technique used for identifying possible buried objects in shallow investigations (Davis and Annan 1989). For this motive GPR is often employed in archaeological field for the search of ancient ruins walls and human manufactured
