Abstract:This study focuses on the integrated application of the frequency-domain (terrain conductivity, TC) and transient electromagnetic (TEM) methods to map an ancient riverine harbour (port) at the Egyptian archaeological site of Tell el-Rub'a (prehistoric Mendes). Fifty-one TC profiles were measured using six EM frequencies and sixteen TEM soundings were performed at the selected site. The apparent conductivity maps derived from the TC survey enabled defining the lateral extension of the harbour basin and its edge… Show more
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.
