Multidisciplined investigation to locate theKentucky shipwreck

Metodología para la prospección geofísica en arqueología: apuntes a partir de los trabajos de Iesso, Can Tacó, Molins Nous y El Goleró

“…Un ejemplo de esta alteración puede ser simplemente una variación en el contenido volumétrico de agua. Parte de esta onda es reflectada hasta la superficie (el pulso electromagnético que se propaga en el suelo puede sufrir: reflexión, refracción, difusión y dispersión [Simms y Albertson, 2000]) y puede ser detectada por la antena receptora y registrada en función del tiempo doble de trayecto. El tiempo doble es el tiempo que la onda tarda en recorrer hasta la interfaz reflectora y retornar a la superficie (tiempo de ida y vuelta).…”

Electric and magnetic tomographic approach for the geophysical investigation of an unexplored area in the archaeological site of Pompeii (Southern Italy)

“…The application of different geophysical techniques in archaeological exploration has acquired an increasing interest during the last few years, because of their peculiarity of being non-invasive methods (Bevan and Roosevelt, 2003;Patella and Hesse, 1999;Simms and Albertson, 2000). In particular, the joint application of electric and magnetic methods for the localization of buried structures has become a standard approach to solve some archaeological problems (Batmunkh et al, 2004;Chianese et al, 2004;Gaffney et al, 2004).…”

Of His Bones are Coral Made: Submerged Cultural Resources, Site Formation Processes, and Multiple Scales of Interpretation in Coastal Ghana

“…Although it does not yet occupy quite the central role either Schiffer or Muckelroy envisioned, the importance of these factors in interpreting and understanding archaeological sites of any variety is becoming more widely understood and accepted. Detailed discussions of the history, development and application of formation process theory in both its terrestrial and maritime contexts may be found elsewhere (Aberg 1997;Dellino-Musgrave 2006;Dunbar et al 1992;Garrison 1998;Gibbs 2006b;Goldberg et al 1993;Gould 1997:110;Gould and Conlin 1999;Hassan 1987;Lenihan and Murphy 1998;Maarleveld 1995;Marsden 1976;Martin 1997;MacLeod 1991;Muckelroy 1975Muckelroy , 1976Muckelroy , 1978Murphy 1990;O'Shea 2002;Palma 2005;Rapp and Hill 2006;Schiffer 1972;Sheridan 1979;Simms and Albertson 2000;Stein 2001;Ward et al 1999b;Ward and Larcombe 2003;Ward et al 1999a:561;Wheeler 2002), but are not central to the discussion here. 37 Deagan's 1996 discussion of environmental and historical archaeology in America may be extended here in a somewhat different discussion of environmental (the seascape and site formation processes) and historical maritime archaeology in coastal Ghana. distinctions clearly demarcate points against which to measure formation processes of the shipwreck in its seafloor environment.…”
