Abstract
New research techniques used in other fields such as agronomy, geophysics, geochemistry, etc. are used by archaeologists at the present time. These techniques have the potential to give useful information about ancient human activities. The chemical and taxonomic analysis of soils can be a useful tool in recognizing different anthropogenic activity areas.
