  • Abstract:
    Ground-penetrating radar mapping allows for a three-dimensional analysis of archaeological features within the context of landscape studies. The method s ability to measure the intensity of radar reflections from deep in the ground can produce images and maps of buried features not visible on the surface. A study was conducted in some areas near the Domus Romana in Rabat (Malta) in order to investigate the buried archaeological structures. The ground-penetrating radar analysis showed them to be anomalies likely associated to archaeological remains.
