Rome Reborn 1.0

I found this on the technorati RSS feed today, and I think it might be of interest to our Romanist following. It is exactly the sort of thing that we should do at the BM with regards to excavated sites etc. I haven’t gone in depth into this to find out how it was created, but I wonder if the models could be geo referenced and if they are in sketch up (which indeed they look to be), dumped into Google Earth. Would be a fantastic resource if so! Apologies if this has been done already!

Rome Reborn 1.0

And if you’re really into Rome, the series starts again on BBC 2 this Wednesday, can’t wait….
