Abstract :
The paper is on the use of GPR to detect features of instability affecting the structures of Villa Arianna archaeological complex. GPR data were acquired with a 250 MHz antenna on a cave excavated from an in situ deposit and inside the Villa, which lies on the top of a tuffaceous terrace. The study shows a direct correlation between the time shifts and amplitude spectra variations of the ground direct wave with the detachment surface location.
