            Sites Discovered with Ambatovy
          
        
        
          On the map above, the archaeological sites are linked to the building sites open during the construction period. The area in question
        
        
          lies on a diagonal line between the Mangoro and Ivondro Rivers, which are located in the cities of Moramanga and Tamatave
        
        
          respectively.
        
        
          During Ambatovy’s construction phase, more than 100 sites of archaeological interest were identified, dating back to the period
        
        
          between the 18th to the 20th century. This spatial distribution establishes, for the first time, the existence of significant interaction
        
        
          between the populations of Tamatave and Moramanga.
        
        
          This map also shows a certain disparity in the distribution of sites along the pipeline. The largest concentration of sites (frame ZC1)
