Below you'll see a more complete scene containing further 3D content from the Gabii Project. Like the simpler scene in the first sandbox, this is the kind of scene which could accompany an article or other narrative text. It's a prototype- still very much under development!
Please be patient while the scene loads.
This scene shows you further stratigraphic contexts from 'Area B' of the Gabii excavations. It is a more complete version of the sequence shown in the first sandbox. In area B we uncovered the remains of a house which occupies part of a block delineated by two of the radial roads at Gabii. The house was constructed and occupied during the Republican Period. There is evidence for a second phase of construction activities, which may represent a renewal of the house, or a repurposing of the space for non-residential activities. During the Imperial Period a small necropolis develops, representing a significant change in the use of this space. In this scene you can see one of the burials from the necropolis in relation to a wall from the second phase of construction activities. Everything is covered by the stratigraphic context 1016, a post-abandonment accumulation layer.
The scene on this page is built using Unity3D. If you've never used Unity before you will need to download a plug-in to load the scene. If you can't see anything loading in the area below this paragraph, you need the Unity plug-in. If you need a refresher on how to navigate in the scene, look back at the first sandbox.
