Abstract

Melka Kunture (Ethiopia) represents an important prehistoric archaeological site. To protect and to safeguard this cultural heritage, advanced technologies such as the satellite photogrammetry and the web-GIS have been utilized. The use of IKONOS stereoscopic images allowed the creatioo of the new large scale topographic-archaeological map of Melka Kunture. The WebGIS act as an interactive museum, containing forty years of research and excavation data. These products constitute an useful tool for the preservation and the knowlwdge of several archaeological sites spread over a 100 km2 area.
