Abstract

This site documents our early efforts at creating a virtual reconstruction of the ancient South Asian city of Sirkap. Sirkap is part of the larger archaeological complex at Taxila, now located in the modern state of Pakistan, in the province of Punjab. The project is an attempt to apply twenty-first century technology to a first/second century CE cultural heritage.

Comments
