Mineral-magnetic characterization as a key to explain differences in magnetic contrast and improve archaeological interpretation: An example of the Roman Site at Auritz/Aurizberri, Navarre
Original language description
Geophysical and geoarchaeological methods can be used to delimit the extent and characterise the nature of settlement in the past. To this end, a magnetic survey was conducted at the site of the ancient Roman town of Zaldua (Auritz, Navarre). Although the results of this survey provided a firm basis for a preliminary archaeological assessment of the site (Garcia-Garcia et al., 2016), in some parts of the study area the magnetic response was difficult to interpret. This is most striking in the north of the main area, where a narrow band without clear magnetic variation separates two zones with clear evidence of intensive occupation. The same result was reproduced in the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) surveys performed in this area. The absence of clear responses is believed not to reflect archaeological reality but the reason for this contrast-free fringe is unknown, and remains one of the archaeological questions of the site.
