An illegal excavation at Kılıç Öreniçi site revealed a
monumental ruin that was thought to belong to Roman period architecture. To
determine the continuity of these historical remains and other possible buried
remains around the excavation, electrical resistivity tomography measurements
were performed according to the Wenner-Schlumberger array in a total of twenty
lines in two areas. The software used to evaluate the measured field data
offers two different inversion methods. The ability of these two methods has
been tested for common electrode arrays using synthetic archaeological models.
The used archaeological models (block and horizontal cylinder) represent walls
and columns corresponding to the remains of buried foundation. The modeling
results provided contributions to the interpretation of the resistivity data
measured from archaeology field.

ISPARTA KILIÇ ÖREN MEVKİİNDE BİR KAÇAK KAZI ALANINDA ELEKTRİK ÖZDİRENÇ TOMOGRAFİ ARAŞTIRMASI

Öz

Isparta Kılıç Ören mevkiinde kaçak kazı sonucu Roma
dönemi mimarisine ait olduğu düşünülen gömülü anıtsal bir kalıntı ortaya
çıkmıştır. Bu kalıntının sürekliliğini ve kazı etrafında gömülü olası
kalıntıları belirlemek için iki bölgede toplam 20 profilde Wenner-Schlumberger
dizilimine göre elektrik özdirenç tomografi ölçümleri gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Ölçülen saha verilerini değerlendirmede kullanılan yazılım iki farklı ters
çözüm yöntemi seçeneği sunmaktadır. Bu iki yöntemin yeterliliği yaygın elektrot
dizilimleri için sentetik arkeolojik modeller kullanılarak test edilmiştir.
Kullanılan arkeolojik modeller (blok ve yatay silindir), gömülü yapı
kalıntılarına karşılık gelen duvarları ve sütunları temsil etmektedir. Sentetik
model sonuçları, arkeoloji sahasından ölçülen özdirenç verilerin yorumlanmasına
katkılar sağlamıştır.
