Great Discoveries in Archaeology
Magnetometry is a geophysical survey method that measures the Earth's magnetic field variations caused by subsurface archaeological features. This technique helps archaeologists identify and map structures, such as walls, pits, and ditches, by detecting differences in magnetic properties between the soil and buried artifacts. It is a non-invasive method, making it ideal for preliminary surveys and site assessments without disturbing the ground.
congrats on reading the definition of magnetometry. now let's actually learn it.
