Magnetic and electrical resistivity image survey in a buried Adramytteion ancient city in Western Anatolia, Turkey

This paper examines a buried Adramytteion ancient city in the Balikesir-Burhaniye-Oren district located in the Western Anatolian region of Turkey. In this research, the some ruins in Adramytteion with the different properties such as magnetic and resistivity is investigated using plausible techniques, which are not experienced before. The attached ruins with the magnetic and resistivity attributes are diagnosed correctly by the use of magnetic and resistivity techniques. In this work, a kiln structure with a high total magnetic field value and a wall with high resistivity values were identified in the same area. The identified archaeological ruins are found in a small part of Adramytteion. However, this leads us to a conclusion that the number of similar parts in Adramytteion are quite high than expected. Hence, both techniques are consistent to bring out a larger part of Adramytteion
