Cevre Kale: Applications Of Newly Developed Methods, Technology And Data For Understanding The Iron Age City In YarasliOzguner, Nimet Pinar 01 April 2006 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this thesis is to test the validity of applications of Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems in Anatolian archaeology. The focus of the study is an Iron Age fortress Ç / evre Kale and its associated structures.
During the course of the study, 5 km long outer wall enclosing a territory around Ç / evre Kale documented for the first time by employing high altitude aerial imagery. In addition to the GIS analyses, examination of the geology, land use and soil quality data showed that the outer wall is in a way acting to guard and protect inhabitants of the fortress and, perhaps more importantly, the well-watered pasture surrounding the fortress and demarcated by the enclosure wall. Evaluation of the available archaeological and historical evidence suggested that Ç / evre Kale might be of a site with significant military importance at least in the first half of the 6th century BC.
As a result, this thesis is underlying the importance of high and low altitude aerial imagery in terms of documentation, evaluation and monitoring of the archaeological sites as part of the archaeological research
