Subsurface Imaging of the Linear Mounds

David Arthurs

Abstract

This presentation will present preliminary results of ground penetrating radar investigations at Linear Mounds National Historic Site of Canada, in southwestern Manitoba. The objectives of the project were to use remote sensing technology to gather data on the construction of the earthworks, and to document disturbances in the burial mounds associated with early archaeological explorations.
