Abstract

Abstract This paper focuses on the contribution of geophysical measurements to the study of the Sarno Baths in Pompeii in the context of the MACH project funded by the University of Padua. Between 2016 and 2017, a series of geophysical measurements were carried out inside and outside the Sarno Baths in order to support the multidisciplinary study of this archaeological site. High-frequency ground penetrating radar (GPR) antennas have been applied to the characterization of horizontal and vertical structural elements (vaults and walls) of the building, where GPR acquisitions and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) were used in the open field to identifying possible archaeological features. In general, the results made by these geophysical measurements provide new information supporting both structural analysis and preliminary archaeological excavation conducted in this area.
