Abstract
Summary
2D and 3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements have been applied for the investigation of Celtic burial mounds. The results show the general structure of the mounds and also indications of previous excavations. The archaeological interpretation of the result is complicated by the complex geological structure of the subsurface and the effect of trees, which also prohibit a regular electrode layout for 3D measurements. A reference measurement on undisturbed ground helps to assess the anomalies in the resistivity tomogram.
