        Despite the increasing use of deep learning in image processing, but the use of this technology in the fields related to cultural heritage, due to problems such as the lack of required databases, the cost of creating a new database, the complexity of working with deep neural networks, and etc., remains very limited. In this article, a method for the automatic location of caravanserais in satellite images has been introduced. For this purpose, a database of satellite images of 203 Iranian caravanserais was created and then, using the transfer learning technique, YOLOv5 (YOLOv5) object detecting algorithm was trained to locate caravanserais on the above database. To evaluate the efficiency of this network, 25 new images with dimensions of 2.5*2.5 square kilometers were selected from the surroundings of some caravanserais, and using the sliding window technique and the generated weights in the previous step, the operation of recognizing caravanserais was carried out on these images. In order to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis, the misdiagnosed locations were added to the database as new data and the YOLOv5 algorithm was retrained. The final accuracy of the proposed algorithm in finding the location of the caravanserai was 91.43% mAP_0.5. Manuscript profile
