During its heyday the city was a highly developed central place, with a large population and a booming economy. Naga has been the object of archaeological research for several decades – and of geoscientific investigation since 2008. The first step for the investigation was to select adequate methods that combine the advantages of various subdisciplines and approaches. The study presented employs techniques from terrain modelling, geophysics and environmental analytics to evaluate field data with the aim of a comprehensive landscape reconstruction.}, number={3}, journal={DIE ERDE – Journal of the Geographical Society of Berlin}, author={Berking, Jonas and Meister, Julia and Ullrich, Burkart and Schott, Michael and Kaufmann, Georg and Schütt, Brigitta}, pages={289–313} }
