Abstract: In this contribution it is coined and presented a new concept: "Precision Archaeology'" (PA). PA is a concept based on observing, measuring and responding to inter and intra-field variability in land. PA aims at defining a decision support system for archaeology management for optimizing returns on inputs while preserving resources.
