Developing the 3D imaging of Iron Age art in the ENTRANS Project

No / Although 3D imaging is increasingly used in archaeology as a presentational tool, advances in technology are such that its analytical potential is beginning to be realised. As part of the ENTRANS Project, 3D imaging has been undertaken on a range of Iron Age objects from museums in Slovenia and Croatia, including several items of situla art. This paper reviews the potential and limitations of various imaging techniques in relation to both presentational and analytical objectives. It considers such variables as time and resource constraints, the size and portability of objects and equipment, and the potential problems caused by past conservation. It concludes that 3D imaging, appropriately utilised, has great potential in both the analysis and presentation of Iron Age art. / HERA
