The sound produced by hammering on an excavated part is much deeper than on an undisturbed surface, a circumstance worth knowing when exploring a grass-grown downland, though not applicable to cultivated ground. [Augustus Pitt Rivers. Excavations in Cranborne Chase. Volume IV. 1895] Geophysical techniques for archaeological prospecting imply a certain "seeing beneath the soil," a divination which is akin to scrying defined as looking within one medium in order to envision an other matter or time. Such techniques frequently involve the examination of electromagnetic phenomena mapped to location, and a search for anomalous disturbances of local fields. Acoustic and geochemical methods of examination can also be employed. The fieldtrip will examine various approaches to this divining, for example electromagnetic field strength measurement and magnetometer surveying, to assess an important, as yet unspecified Berlin location to be revealed on the 11th of July.
