Documentación arqueológica tridimensional de la cultura material en la terraza sureste de la necrópolis de Qubbet el-Hawa (Asuán): potencial y difusión pública de resultados

Abstract

The material culture found in the necropolis of Qubbet el-Hawa stands out for its typological and chronological diversity and quality. It is possible to reconstruct different chapters of the history of the First Nome of Upper Egypt thanks to material culture studies. Furthermore, these studies allow us to detect changes in funerary rituals. Qubbet el-Hawa is an excellent archaeological site to be documented with the latest technologies, especially three-dimensional modelling. The updated work on the digital artefact collection from the Qubbet el-Hawa Project offers a three-dimensional open access library, which allows users to visit a virtual museum of the material culture recovered in the necropolis. This paper presents the methodology applied to maximize the potential of three-dimensional archaeological documentation for the public dissemination of the research results.
