Resumen

The identification of Roman gold mining activity in plateau areas represents one of the most challenging tasks for the reconstruction of ancient mining landscapes. This article explores the presence of geomorphological features using LiDAR and UAV technology to reveal evidences of gold mining activity in an unknown sector from Zamora (NW Spain). The comparison with other well-known plateau mining sectors allow to establish the prospection method carried out by the Romans for the location of gold-rich areas. Prospection tasks consisted in the distribution of water tanks and a complex drainage system used for ground-sluicing the gold-bearing deposits. This method implies that mining works were carried out seasonally, during the humid periods or until a new water tanks recharge. The results suggest that large-scale changes on the landscape arelinked to Roman mining and provide an overview of the important human impact in the light of the recent Quaternary
