The Archaeological Geophysics Team at Ithaca College is one of a handful of academic institutions to have a complete suite of field instruments, laboratory instruments, and analysis software. The team's efforts are focused on addressing landscape scale anthropological questions, environmental science issues, and increasing the accuracy and efficiency of ground-based remote sensing methods.
The Team--in collaboration with researchers from Cornell University's Classics Department--were recently awarded a National Science Foundation grant $168,208 to conduct three years of summer research at Late Bronze Age cities in Cyprus. This research will enhance learning opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students at Ithaca College and Cornell University.
