Geophysikalische Erkundung
der Fürstensitze
Mit der geophysikalischen Prospektion verfügen wir über eine weitere
wichtige Methode, um auf zerstörungsfreie Art und Weise Einblicke
in den archäologischen Befund zu bekommen. Basierend auf Messungen
der physikalischen Eigenschaften des Bodens können mit unterschiedlichen
Verfahren im Erdreich solche Strukturen sichtbar gemacht werden,
die es erlauben archäologische Hinterlassenschaften zu erkennen
und zu interpretieren.

With geophysical prospection, we have at our disposal another
important method of achieving insight into archaeological findings in a
non-destructive manner. Based on measurements of the ground’s physical
characteristics, structures in the soil can be uncovered using various
methods, which enable archaeological remnants to be detected and
interpreted.
Modern prospection methods lend themselves especially well to
use at expansive settlement areas and ramparts, as is the case with the
present investigations of the extensive outer settlement at the Heuneburg.
However in investigating small-scale monument groups such as tumulus
necropolises, valuable insight can also be gained thanks to the use of
geophysical prospection.
As examples for the use of the such measurements in surveying
settlement structures, the previously named outer settlement at the
Heuneburg as well as the Ipf (near Bopfingen) and the plateau at Mont
Lassois in Burgundy should be mentioned.
Furthermore, Celtic burial places were measured at the necropolises
in the vicinity of the Ipf and in the area of the Kleinaspergle, an early
La Tène period tumulus close to Hohenasperg (near Ludwigsburg).
