Remotely Sensing the Ancient Interactions between Humans and the Environment during the Roman Period at Porolissum

<p>This paper summarizes results from a landscape archaeology research project that explores the ways in which ancient Romans from the territory of Dacia Porolissensis (Romania) used and modified the environment around them. Based on LiDAR-derived data (Light Detection and Ranging) for accurat...
