Egypt
The 3D Giza Plateau & Virtual Archaeology
Talking Pyramids (Vincent Brown)
With photos and 2 minute preview video.
The Giza Archives Project at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has for many years been the most extensive online resource on the archaeology of the Giza Plateau. Much of the archived material is from the 40 years of excavations carried out by Egyptologist George Reisner who led the the Harvard University-Boston MFA expedition at Giza from 1902 to 1942.
Now the Giza Archives Project has moved into the virtual arena with the release of Giza 3D!
However, this is not the first time the project has used 3D immersive technology to explore the possibilities of ‘Virtual Egyptology’.
