3D Archaeology. Early Medieval Earrings from Kranj.

Authors: Seta Štuhec, Benjamin Štular
Year: 2015


This multi-touch book presents 3D models of selected early medieval earrings from the Župna cerkev (Parish church) in Kranj (Slovenia) archaeological site. The book came about as part of an extensive research project analysing the site. In the process of documenting artefacts in a classic archaeological manner, that is with photography, archaeological drawings and textual descriptions, we also experimented with 3D documentation techniques that were available at the time. Due to restricted time that was available for 3D documentation, we focused on earrings as a predominant type of expressive artefacts on the site.
