	abstract = {<p>Confronted with the dangers of destruction of many important archaeological sites on Orleans Island by urban expansion, road construction, farming development and in view of the increasing costs of specialized manpower, a quick and ecomical way of detecting and locating archaeological remains is an imperative. Shallow depth geophysical prospecting using electrical resistivity and magnetic methods are eventual solutions to this problem and this is why these methods were used in parallel with standard archaeological techniques on Orleans Island. After two years of preliminary experience related to archaeogeophysical searches carried out on Orleans Island, it is now worthwhile to present some of the results obtained. These results turned out to be conclusive and are worth being giving particular attention to in the near future. The geophysical methods have the advantage of being non-destructive and allow the acquisition of pre-knowledge of the archaeological content in order to determine as precisely as possible the location of excavations which have been voluntarily restricted on Orleans Island.</p>},
