Abstract

Abstract Preliminary results of GPR field prospection carried out in the area of the prehistoric mining field Borownia (Ćmielów, Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski District) are presented. This mining field forms a belt (30-50 m wide and 700 m long), starting from the valley edge of the Kamienna River southeastwards. Southeastern and western parts of the site have preserved the original post-exploitation relief. Geology of the Borownia mining field was examined and acquired radiograms revealed three distinct zones of anomaly concentrations. The central zone (B) is clearly a fragment of the prehistoric mining field, confirmed not only by the GPR sounding but also by archeological surveys. The other two zones have not yet been investigated in detail yet but their surface and archaeological examination may determine only whether their underground structures are natural or have been created by humans. Data obtained during the GPR prospection at the Borownia archaeological site confirmed usefulness of 100, 250 and 500 MHz antennas. The relatively large depth range and good resolution are due to favorable geological conditions.

波兰东南部Borownia史前燧石矿地区探地雷达(GPR)勘探的初步结果

摘要介绍了在史前矿区Borownia (Ćmielów, Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski区)进行的探地雷达野外勘探的初步结果。这个矿区形成了一个带(30-50米宽，700米长)，从Kamienna河的山谷边缘向东南开始。遗址的东南部和西部保留了原始的开发后浮雕。对Borownia矿区的地质进行了检查，获得的射线图显示了三个不同的异常集中带。中央区域(B)显然是史前矿区的一个片段，这不仅得到了探地雷达探测的证实，也得到了考古调查的证实。另外两个地区尚未进行详细的调查，但它们的表面和考古检查只能确定它们的地下结构是自然形成的还是人为创造的。在波罗尼亚考古遗址进行探地雷达勘探时获得的数据证实了100、250和500兆赫天线的用处。相对较大的深度范围和较好的分辨率是由于有利的地质条件。

期刊介绍： Studia Quaternaria is designed to publish scientific works concerning the Quaternary, on local, regional and global scale. Studia Quaternaria is interested in all fields of research dealing with stratigraphy and reconstruction of the past environments, including palaeogeography, palaeoecology, palaeoclimatology, palaeohydrology etc. The journal is also open to studies of natural environmental processes, and to recognition of mechanisms involved in the dynamics of our environment. The clue is that the Quaternary is still ongoing and vivid, and understanding of its past and present development support each other.
