Geoarchaeology, Volume 40, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT High‐resolution remote sensing, magnetometry, and trench stratigraphy identify a significant flood event at Lagash (modern Tell al‐Hiba) during the late Early Dynastic period (ca. 2400–2350 BC). Satellite imagery and magnetometry reveal a 90‐meter‐wide meander belt—3–15 times broader than documented canals—adjacent to primary temple districts.

The Paleo‐Serchio River: history of floods between Lucca and Pisa during the Roman period
Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 141-152, January 2025.ABSTRACT The reconstruction of flood frequency beyond the Instrumental Era is challenging and mostly based on historical sources, but it rarely covers more than the last 1000 years when abundant documentation is preserved. To investigate the long‐term trends in flooding and obtain insight into current climatic changes it is necessary to extend these ...
