ResumenEl Lidar aéreo se ha constituido en la última década como una de las herramientas más interesantes para la prospección arqueológica, puesto que permite, entre otras cosas, analizar el terreno con gran detalle obviando la vegetación. Planteamos un ejemplo de las posibilidades que para el Megalitismo la tecnología Lidar puede proporcionar. Para ello, hemos elegido la necrópolis megalítica del Monte de Santa Mariña (provincia de Lugo, Galicia), que cuenta con una treintena de monumentos catalogados. Para el estudio del terreno se ha procedido a diseñar una metodología de prospección arqueológica basada en datos Lidar que, gracias a diferentes análisis visuales propuestos, han permitido situar los monumentos correctamente e incluso encontrar uno nuevo.

AbstractOver the last decade, the aerial Lidar has been constituted as one of the most interesting tools for the archaeological survey, because it allows, among other things, to analyze the field in detail, specially obviating the vegetation. Thus, we propose an example of the possibilities that Lidar technology could provide in the case of Megalithic culture. Furthermore, we have chosen the megalithic necropolis of Monte de Santa Mariña (Lugo, Galicia), which had some thirty-four monuments officially cataloged. Consequently, before starting the archaeological survey we have planned a methodology based on Lidar data. In fact, thanks to the study of different types of visual analysis proposed by some authors, we were able to identify correctly the whole of all the monuments and even find a new one.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
