AI generated art depicting history and archaeology is actively spreading ignorance
Follow real archaeologists and historians and creators sharing real stuff, not this fake crap that looks nice and pretends to be authentic but gets everything wrong
@archexis Congratulations!
I've just added a reference to your article to the #PleiadesGazetteer page for Albintimilium:
Alb(i)um Intimilium/Albintimilium (modern Ventimiglia) was the main settlement of the Ligurian tribe of the Intemelii. In the 2nd century BC it came under control of the Roman Republic. Albintimilium became a municipium in 89 BC in the tribus Falerna. In the same period the city walls were built, with several towers. The city flourished in the early Imperial period, with baths, an acqueduct and a theater. In the 6th and early 7th century it was a Byzantine kastron, coming under control of the Longobards in 641. During the 7th and 8th century the Roman city was slowly abandoned in favour of a smaller hilltop settlement focused around the Cathedral.
Just became aware of the glTF format for 3D.
If you create a 3D view in @qgis with the qgis2threejs plugin you can save to web/html, but you can also save to *.gltf and then simply import to @Blender and use all the awesome 3D tools for animation and more there.
I need to learn more about glTF and 3D Tiles...

We're currently hiring a postdoc. in landscape archaeology for the "Textile Resources in Viking Age Landscapes"-project @ University of Copenhagen.
So, if you're a landscape archaeologist with an interest in Late Iron Age and Viking Age textile production and landscape-use, have a look or re-toot!
