Geophysical prospection at a buried Spanish Fort in South Argentina

Geophysical methods were applied to characterize the Floridablanca archaeological site at San Julian Bay, Argentina. It corresponded to a little village established as part of a Spanish Crown project for the colonization and defence of the Patagonian Atlantic Coast. In this work we present the resul...
