Abstract
The search for bodies of archaeological interest and buried anthropogenic objects at shallow depths, can be improved by using different geophysical methods. A comparison between two integrative methods (fluxgate differential magnetic and GPR methods) has been performed with the aim of defining the ring ditch at a neolithic site (Ripa Tetta, Lucera) near Foggia (Italy), the extent of which was uncertain. After processing the field data, the radar anomalies show a good agreement with the magnetic anomalies in the correspondence of some specific zones of the area investigated. The results of the geophysical survey have been confirmed by direct archaeological excavations carried out only at anomalous zones. In these zones the archaeologists found a ditch around the village.
