Cuenca-Garcia, C., Armstrong, K., Aidona, E., De Smedt, P., Rosveare, A., Rosveare, M., …Lowe, K. (2018). THE SOIL SCIENCE & ARCHAEO-GEOPHYSICS ALLIANCE (SAGA): going beyond prospection. Research Ideas and Outcomes, 4, Article e31648. https://doi.org/10.3897/rio.4.e31648

Archaeological sites can be discovered and recorded in a high-resolution and non-invasive manner using geophysical methods. These measure the spatial variation of a range of physical properties of the soil which may be representative proxies of the s...

Putting the Spotlight on Small Metal Age Pottery Scatters in Northern Calabria (Italy) (2017)
Journal Article
de Neef, W., Armstrong, K., & van Leusen, M. (2017). Putting the Spotlight on Small Metal Age Pottery Scatters in Northern Calabria (Italy). Journal of Field Archaeology, 42(4), 283-297-297. https://doi.org/10.1080/00934690.2017.1332930

This paper presents the results of an in-depth multidisciplinary restudy of small Metal Age surface scatters recorded in earlier fieldwalking surveys in northern Calabria (Italy). Guided by a stratified sampling approach based on site types and topog... Read More about Putting the Spotlight on Small Metal Age Pottery Scatters in Northern Calabria (Italy).
