&lt;div&gt;using mainly archaeological data. Such data have been found in many places in&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;the study-area. These findings date from the Neolithic to the Ottoman period.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;We have approached this problem by studying the geomorphological processes&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;of this area and through detailed mapping of the alluviation around ancient&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;monuments.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;A spatial database was created containing geological, geomorphological and&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;archaeological data, along with all measurements collected during fieldwork.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Apart from contemporary data, older topographical maps of the area were also&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;imported and analyzed in the GIS together with the other datasets. The results&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;indicate that deposition rates vary on temporal and spatial scales. This is due to&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;the topography, the lithology and the climatic changes in the area. Thus, the&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;whole landscape of Thessaloniki area has undergone continuous change; we&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;have estimated vertical deposition rates ranging between 1,66 and 7,5 mm p.a.&lt;/div&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
