GIS (Geographical Information System) is a useful tool used by Archaeologist these days to understand the influence of Geography on human behavior. Geography also influences the degree of exposure of archaeological sites, and the impacts that they face from human activity and natural forces. GIS facilitates mapping to analyze depositional patterns as well as catalog and quantify artifacts. It can provide a well-structured descriptive and analytical tool for identifying spatial patterns. It is also an important tool for cultural heritage management. Two fields of archaeological heritage involve GIS application: documentation and monitoring of archaeological finds.
