Abstract:
Ancient Egypt in 3D
APPlication allows to explore the major Egyptian archaeological sites, displaying the appearance they had in ancient times.
Through a simple graphical menu you can move around on a map of the Nile and see the main archaeological sites: when an area has been selected you can access to its detailed description, supported by photos and videos, and also by interactive graphic reconstructions that go around the monuments, fly over the city and show the evolution that they have had up to the present day, using the “time machine”.
You can also enter the temples, explore and move within the various archaeological sites, with a detailed navigation.
The work is intended to focus on the urban tissue of ancient Egypt, restoring the greatness of sites as the city of Thebes and the funerary complex at Giza.
At the moment the application includes the sites of Alexandria, Giza, Saqqara, Deir El Medina, Dendera, Karnak, Luxor, Deir El Bahari, Medinet Habu, Philae and Abu Simbel.
