Earth Resistance for Archaeologists, written by the foremost expert
in the field, provides archaeologists with the know-how required to
exploit the significant potential of earth resistance methods. A
wide variety of possible uses are presented, including cases where
earth resistance surveys succeeded in mapping buried archaeological
remains that magnetometer surveys were unable to detect. Examples
include earth resistance data from many archaeological sites,
including in England, Scotland, Nepal, Bangladesh, and more. The
archaeological features that can be detected through earth
resistance methods are varied, ranging from ditches, pits, and
grave cuts to stone and brick foundations, and even include whole
landscapes. Whereas area surveys were traditionally the most common
earth resistance method, depth profiling and vertical imaging have
become well-developed tools that allow electrical depth
investigations in three dimensions. Both techniques are described
in detail and archaeologists will be able to apply them in their
work. Content is equally relevant for environmental investigations.
