Here's an article about it and a small quote

If you are looking for a way to tour some fascinating archaeological sites without spending a dime or a great deal of time, Dr. Nicolae Roddy and Ronald Simkins of Creighton University have developed a viable option worth considering: The "Virtual World Project". It is a web-based teaching and study tool that presents interactive virtual reality tours of the ancient world. Updated continuously, it is an ongoing project with a primary focus on the Levant, although one will also find there some of the best known classical sites of ancient Greece and Turkey. To date, many important archaeological sites in Israel, Jordan, Turkey and Greece have been extensively photographed and graphically represented to allow the visitor to "walk" through the sites, many of which offer an audio component as well.

cool

 

I did do some working for an archeoligist .Was an eye opener .

 

 

When i was not digging fot pots and other artifacts or uncovering sites ,then i was puzzling the pieces together (even glass)

 

(my biggest gray claywork pot was about 50cm high starting from scratch i only missed a couple of pieces that we did not recover from the site )

 

 

People always ending up stealing our cannon balls (b*st*rds)
