Laboratory ClassWe teach and train students of archaeology in the field of archaeogeophysical prospection. Thereby the theoretical background is as important to us as the application of the methods during field studies. Intensive courses and lectures were given at Leipzig University (2004), Hamburg University (2006), UNAM Mexico City (2007) and Humboldt University of Berlin (2008). Practical training of students at the Early Medieval castle of Groß Thun near Stade (Lower Saxony, Germany). The aim of the field class was to demonstrate the application of geophysical prospection methods. The students learned about the different techniques, the different kind of results that are achieved and the limitations of each method.
