To detect buried relics and ruins at shallow depths, we proposed underground imaging using shear waves and a method based on the stacking of reflected scattered waves. In this method, point reflection is assumed. To confirm the validity of our proposed method, exploration experiments were carried out at a site in Nara National Cultural Properties Research Institute. The results from this confirm the feasibility of our proposed method. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
