The object of the present thesis is the geoarchaeological study of the NE part of the Peloponnese, specifically the zone between the villages of Velo and Assos. The study area is bounded in the mainland by the mountainous ranges of Farmaka, Xerovouni, Megalovouni, Trikorfo and Psili Rachi, which are the natural borders with the prefecture of Argolida. This area belongs to the wider area of the Corinthian basin, which, in turn, is an area of characteristic geology and geomorphology. We try to study the soil erosion and deposit mechanisms, in relation to the tectonic and geomorphological status and characteristics of the wider basin. An attempt is made to represent - as faithfully as possible - the human settlement development of the study area, from the Stone Age up to the Roman Era. Our goal was to arrive to conclusions on the evolution and the changes of the terrain in the near geological past (upper Holocene)
