RESEARCH: Rebuilding the Ancient City of Troy

Undergraduate students Jon Vidar and Trevor Muirhead modeled in 3-D animation the archeological site of the city of Troy. They investigate whether the city was destroyed by an earthquake or by the Trojan Horse during the Trojan War. The fly-through animation of the model of Troy allows the audience to experience what it would have been like to walk the streets of this ancient city. This multimedia project was created in the course, "Near Eastern and Mediterranean Archeology," instructed by Professor Lynn Swartz-Dodd.
