  • Summary

    This chapter details the use of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) in the Lateran area.It offers an introduction to radar methodology before discussing results from targeted surveys inside the Archbasilica and to the north, west and south of the building. An important argument of the paper is that advanced interpretation of GPR results is best undertaken in conjunction with material derived from a range of other sources and specialist fields. The potential significance of project survey results for the interpretation of Roman topography, the construction of Constantineߣs Basilica and the development of the Patriarchium is considered.The possibility that the celebrated Triclinium of Leo III might have lain further south than previously believed is discussed in the light of findings to the north-east of the Archbasilica.
