Methodologies A number of methodologies have been utilized in the study of the city and landscape of Roman Corinth. The ancient Roman city was very large in size, 240.6 hectares, and was founded directly on the site of the former Greek city. In the modern day a farming village exists at the site of the ancient city. The Corinth Excavations of the American School of Classical Studies, now 100 years old, have excavated in many different areas of the ancient city including Acrocorinth. These areas of excavation are sometimes separated by as much as 3-4 kilometers. One of the goals of the Corinth Computer Project has been to make a highly accurate modern map of the excavated areas of the city. This has made it necessary to survey, by means of an electronic total station, all above ground monuments and buildings of the ancient city. This was accomplished in a series of summer seasons beginning in 1988. This survey forms the backbone of the entire project. A large number of topographical maps have been digitized and calibrated with the computerized topographical and architectural survey as well as low level and high level air photographs and satellite images.
