Applied sciences and their implementation in archeology

Abstract

Archeologists have recently tumed towards modern science to help them and to save their effort and time. This tendency has been occurred since the last century at which time science had directed its research and studies at intangible subjects especially X-rays, cosmic rays, electromagnetic waves and other techniques, in a continuous attempt to get used of them scientifically and in practice. In this research we will shed light on some of these techniques, such as aerial photography, remote sensing, and lately the geophysical survey technology which has been applied in some Syrian archeological sites dating back to different periods.
