The Challenges of Objectively Reconstructing Kings Weston Roman Villa and the Roman Ruins at Sea Mills

Activity: Talk or presentation typesCommunity engagement, including convening focus/advisory groups

Description

Creating three-dimensional records and reconstructions of excavations and built heritage is quickly spreading throughout the field of archaeology. However, how much is this a novelty or a shiny new toy for archaeologists to play with? Does this expand our ability to understand what we excavate? And to what extent is it even practical for archaeologists to adopt? These are the questions of my thesis, and the remains at Kings Weston and Sea Mills provide a challenging testbed to eke out the problems and shortcomings of this method.
