  • Thoughts on the Integration of Slice-Maps and Reflection Profiles in GPR Analysis

    Any comprehensive interpretation of GPR data must include the integration and analysis of both amplitude slice-maps and two-dimensional reflection profiles. Often one method can yield results that the other cannot, producing important insights. One example from Ireland shows how slice-maps produced very useful images of subtle post molds, which outlined a crannog in a pond…

  • GPR Analysis of the Mortuary Features at Pillar Sites in the Turkana Lake Area, Kenya

    Four sites with standing pillars, often in clusters or circles, which are estimated to be 8,000 years old, were constructed on the margin of a large freshwater lake in northern Kenya in the early Pliocene. Limited excavations of one of them showed abundant human remains associated with these monuments. GPR surveys were carried out within…
