In the Iberian village of Moli D' Espigol, Tornabous, Spain, there are visible remains of an old civilization. The village is partially exposed, being the surrounding areas still covered with soil. In this area was applied Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to map the unknown extents. The aim is to identify archaeological remains, based on the previous knowledge of pre-Roman Iberian communities such as typical constructive type. The 250 MHz centre frequency GPR antenna provided information about the 3D location and geometric contours of possible roads, houses and associated walls. The GPR data was then compared with previous archaeological surveys with already existing excavations in the nearby zones. The output is vital for further archaeological surveys and to select the correct tools to dig, without damaging the valuable buried structures.
