Abstract
The Geophysical Service of the Archaeological Division of the State Antiquities Department in Baden- Wuerttemberg, Germany employs various methods for the prospection of archaeological sites, such as geomagnetics, geoelectrics, electromagnetic induction and ground penetrating radar. These techniques are used not only for the preparation of excavations but also and mainly for the documentation of sites, which should remain untouched and thus be preserved for the future.
