| Abstract | Archaeological excavations have been conducted in two distinct areas of Alacahöyük, located in the northwest of Alaca in the Çorum province and one of the most important Hittite settlements. The subsurface structure of the site was investigated using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), which has become widespread in similar studies over the last few years. On the basis of archaeological considerations that graves of princes are thought to be situated in a defined zone (Zone A) and that the possible existence of wall remains are believed to be in another zone (Zone B), we obtained GPR data using the Ramac CU II GPR system with 100 MHz antennae in 2007. In all profiles of the study area, time slices were obtained from the data collected according to the different positions of the transmitter-receiver antennae, some of which were parallel to one another and to the profiles while others were parallel to one another and perpendicular to the profiles. This was performed after the data went through basic processing steps and were mapped to observe what types of structure extensions were involved and to what depths they occurred. The results revealed the presence of strong reflections in GPR sections, which indicated the location of wall remains and some probable princes' graves. Consequently, excavations were recommended where the presence of anomalies was observed. Archaeological finds during the following excavations corroborated the existence of remains where strong reflections were observed in the maps or radargrams. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
