Virtual Environments for Research in Archaeology
The Virtual Environments for Research in Archaeology project builds on the successful JISC VRE 1 project, Silchester 'Town Life a research and training excavation of one part of the large Roman town at Silchester. The Silchester excavation aims to trace the site's development from its origins before the Roman Conquest to its abandonment in the fifth century A.D. The rich and complex finds from the excavation provide the material to populate the research environment, and a working site to investigate the use of advanced Information Technology in an archaeological context.
