0112 - Interpreting geophysics


Here is the image of the magnetogram of the ditched and palisade enclosure of Monte do Olival 1 with Helmut Becker’s interpretation of the negative structures present at the site. This interpretation will be published next month in the electronic journal Apontamentos de Arqueologia e Património (a free download journal).

One of the things we learn with Helmut is that having a magnetogram is not enough. We also need good interpretation, based on the knowledge of geophysics, but also of the type of contexts we are dealing with.
