Summary (English)

  • Between 18th June and 2nd July 2003, a geophysical survey was carried out at the site of Sentinum, Marche in Italy.

    The survey revealed a comprehensive plan of the town although in some areas the underlying gravel geology may have masked the detection of some archaeological features. The nature of the features highlighted by the magnetometer survey was diverse ranging from the identification of the town forum to small private residences. The mapping of the road network was a success and it was a revelation that the grid system identified in the survey did not wholly conform to the projected layout in the area to the west.
