Geophysics, in the archaeological explorations, before the polling excavations; place, form, depth etc. in three dimensions. For this purpose, the properties of the wanted structure and the physical parameters that can be measured are determined. By taking these parameters into consideration, the method to be applied is selected. Thus, archaeological works can be directed and removed more quickly and at a lower cost without deteriorating the remains. Here the aim of Geophysics; to help the use of time and economic factors in the most appropriate way by guiding the research program better. In this study; It was investigated whether there was a continuation of the fountain between the historical fountain and the area to be excavated at the Murat Çeşme locality in the Silivri district of Istanbul. It was estimated that there was no continuation of the fountain between the fountain and the possible excavation area. As a matter of fact, after the excavation, there was no connection between them.
