Archaeologists Discover 15 Previously Unknown Monuments Buried Around Stonehenge For the study, researchers used a variety of techniques -- including ground-penetrating radar and 3D laser scanning -- to create a highly detailed subsurface map of the entire area. According to a release from the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology, one of the partners in the study, the technologies are notable for being much less destructive than traditional, digging-based exploratory techniques. A full map of the project’s findings is to be presented September 9 at the British Science Festival in Birmingham, England.
