Cultural heritage has been gaining more importance in the recent years in combination with sophisticated yet effective computer
vision techniques. As a consequence, archaeological data, both in textual and image forms, has been considered in the development
of database models. Archaeological sites are the primary source of archaeological data, and...
We present the results of an evaluation of the ARCHAVE system, an immersive virtual reality environment for archaeological research. ARCHAVE is implemented in a Cave. The evaluation studied researchers analyzing lamp and coin finds throughout the excavation trenches at the Petra Great Temple site in Jordan. Experienced archaeologists used our syste...
New tools give archaeologists access to formerly inaccessible parts of the archaeological record. The result is a demonstrably improved model for inquiry to pose, and answer, important research questions. We chronicle a collaborative effort (from 1997 to the present) with Petra Great Temple archaeologists to augment traditional analysis approaches....
A heretofore unsolved problem of great archaeological importance is the automatic assembly of pots made on a wheel from the hundreds (or thousands) of sherds found at an excavation site. An approach is presented to the automatic estimation of mathematical models of such pots from 3D measurements of sherds. A Bayesian approach is formulated beginnin...

The SHAPE Lab was recently established (1999), with a grant from the United States National Science Foundation, by Brown University Departments of Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Com- puter Science and The Center for Old World Archaeology and Art and Department of Anthropology. It is a significant interdisciplinary effort for scientific research...
