Abstract

The understanding of urban centres in the ancient Near East, one of the main regions for investigating the development of cities, has been transformed in recent years through investigations using archaeological geophysical prospection tools. This paper presents results of our recent magnetic gradiometry survey at the large urban site of Türkmen‐Karahöyük (Konya Plain, Turkey) conducted using a SENSYS Magneto MXPDA cart‐based system. Results of the survey have successfully identified and characterized numerous areas of ancient settlement, industrial activity and burials across the massive site, offering new insights into the history of occupation at Türkmen‐Karahöyük. Our findings are thereby helping to shape future investigations at the site and, more broadly, demonstrate the opportunities and challenges presented by cart‐based geophysical survey instruments for archaeological investigations of mounded urban sites with extensive lower towns.

土耳其 Türkmen-Karahöyük 城市中心的磁力梯度测量勘测
古代近东是研究城市发展的主要地区之一,近年来,通过使用考古地球物理勘探工具进行调查,人们对古代近东城市中心的认识发生了转变。本文介绍了我们最近使用基于 SENSYS Magneto MXPDA 车载系统对 Türkmen-Karahöyük 大型城市遗址(土耳其科尼亚平原)进行磁梯度测量勘测的结果。勘测结果成功确定并描述了整个大型遗址中众多古代居住区、工业活动区和墓葬区的特征,为了解 Türkmen-Karahöyük 的占领历史提供了新的视角。我们的研究结果有助于今后对该遗址的调查,并从更广泛的角度展示了推车式地球物理勘测仪器在对下层城镇较多的土丘型城市遗址进行考古调查时所带来的机遇和挑战。

期刊介绍: The scope of the Journal will be international, covering urban, rural and marine environments and the full range of underlying geology. The Journal will contain articles relating to the use of a wide range of propecting techniques, including remote sensing (airborne and satellite), geophysical (e.g. resistivity, magnetometry) and geochemical (e.g. organic markers, soil phosphate). Reports and field evaluations of new techniques will be welcomed. Contributions will be encouraged on the application of relevant software, including G.I.S. analysis, to the data derived from prospection techniques and cartographic analysis of early maps. Reports on integrated site evaluations and follow-up site investigations will be particularly encouraged. The Journal will welcome contributions, in the form of short (field) reports, on the application of prospection techniques in support of comprehensive land-use studies. The Journal will, as appropriate, contain book reviews, conference and meeting reviews, and software evaluation. All papers will be subjected to peer review.
