A combination of geophysical methods could be very a useful and a practical way of verifying the origin and precise localisation of archaeological situations identified by different remote sensing techniques. The results of different methods (and scales) of monitoring these fully non-destructive methods provide distinct data and often complement each other. The presented examples of combination...

Application of GIS-based spatial analysis for archaeological site prediction and evaluation Predictive modelling of Aboriginal archaeological sites has been a common thread in Victorian archaeological practice for many decades. With the advance of GIS-based mapping methods, it is now possible to employ more sophisticated and automated techniques to characterise the available archaeological data...

The Early Pleistocene archaeological evidence from the fluvio-lacustrine sequence of the Nihewan Basin (North China) offers an excellent opportunity to explore early human evolution and behavior in a temperate setting in East Asia, following the earliest 'Out of Africa'. Here we present the first comprehensive study of the Feiliang (FL) site, with emphasis on the archaeological sequence, site i...

Cultural heritage documentation induces the use of computerized techniques to manage and preserve the information produced. Geographical information systems have proved their potentialities in this scope, but they are not always adapted for the management of features at the scale of a particular archaeological site. Moreover, computer applications in archaeology are often technology driven and ...

The papapresents the results of the project CORARC, funded by the Italian Ministry for University and Scientific Research. aimcd at developing a Wcb based system, called SITUS, to support the management of information for archaeological sites. Thc system supports, through a relational database and a G I s server, the archival and management of multiniedia and cartographic data coming fsom a s t...
