Archaeology of Ancient Egypt
Electrical resistivity is a measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current. In archaeological surveys, especially in Egyptian archaeology, this technique helps detect subsurface features by measuring the resistivity of the soil, which varies depending on moisture content, mineral composition, and buried structures. This non-invasive method allows researchers to identify potential sites of interest without the need for extensive excavation.
congrats on reading the definition of electrical resistivity. now let's actually learn it.
