Optimising excavations through geophysics and geoarchaeological sampling: Research design and case studies

Original language description

This publication focuses on geophysical prospection and its use in archaeological research, particularly in the context of developer-led archaeological projects. We compare the results of geophysical surveys with excavation outcomes from large construction projects in order to assess the importance and accuracy of these survey methods. Our aim is to highlight the advantages and benefits of geophysical prospection while also acknowledging its limitations. We examine the factors that influence the success of prospection in locating and interpreting archaeological sites across various areas and regions of the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
