Abstract
P075 Integrated geophisical surveys in an archaeological site in the Ardea municipality (Rome) Abstract In this paper we present the results of geophysical surveys carried out in an archaeological area near Rome (Italy). The main goal was the detection of buried ancient structures and consequently the reconstruction of the stratigraphical setting. Different methodologies as resistivity ground penetrating radar and magnetics are used to improve the geological and archaeological knowledge.Therefore 15 electrical resistivity profiles have been measured in an area of about 2.000 square meters. In the same area a magnetic survey has been run applying the technique of the vertical
