Key Points

The study identifies significant magnetic signals linked to human habitation in archaeological mounds.
Stratification profiles show the strongest magnetic signals in burnt sintered clay layers, indicating past human activity.
Black charcoal strata correspondingly exhibit robust magnetic susceptibilities, highlighting further evidence of habitation.
Field magnetic susceptibility serves as an effective tool for detecting anthropogenic influences in archaeological sites.

Implication

Field analysis reveals anthropogenic load through magnetic susceptibility in stratification profiles, suggesting cultural impact.

Abstract

Field magnetic susceptibility detects anthropogenic load along stratigraphic profiles, Strongest magnetic signal found in burnt sintered clay layers, Black charcoal strata also show strongest magnetic signal
