Abstract
AbstractThe area around the Church of Protaton at Karyes on Mount Athos (Holy Mountain) in northern Greece, was explored by means of resistance mapping and electrical tomography. Ruins of foundation walls were detected and mapped around the Church, and additionally geological information was retrieved by the tomography. The floor of the Church was investigated with ground‐penetrating radar transects wherever was possible. The presence of reflection patterns, which appeared aligned in parallel transects, led to the conclusion that they were caused by structures concealed beneath the floor of the Church. The survey, which took place in and around an existing monument, required different geophysical methods, used in a synergetic manner. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
