Abstract

Portions of Neolithic paintings at Çatalhöyük, Turkey, are hidden under uneven covering layers of plaster. Traditional terahertz data analysis has proven unsuccessful at subsurface imaging of these paintings. An imaging technique is presented, based around Gaussian beam-mode coupling, to visualize the obscured painting.
