Abstract

A tomography experiment using muon cosmic rays was conducted on an archaeological site in Greece, a tumulus. This contribution presents issues related to the simulation of the experiment and of the site, using tools commonly used in high-energy physics. The scientific objective is to compare the results of the simulation with the recorded data to highlight anomalies.
