Abstract

Donald Sanders will give an overview of what they do at Learning Sites and plan to do at the Institute for the Visualization of History, with a presentation of sample projects and how aspects of those projects (and other archaeological problems) could have benefited from access to the kinds of tools the SHAPE Lab looks to create. He will also discuss what tools an archaeology researcher would like to see developed for archaeological research but which do not currently exist, thus inhibiting innovative studies.

A few examples of sites and reconstructions from recent projects:
