Hethitology Portal News: 3D Archive of Cuneiform Tablets

Hethitology Portal News: 3D Archive of Cuneiform Tablets
The Hethitology Portal Mainz (<www.hethiter.net>) started its new 3D Archiv on the occasion of the 10th International Congress of Hittitology.

It hosts more than fifteen hundred 3D models of cuneiform tablets and fragments for scholarly study in addition to the well known Mainzer Photo Archiv.

So far the models are  accessible via the Konkordanz der hethitischen Keilschrifttafeln.

The website was developed by Gerfrid G.W. Müller and Denis Fisseler.

This development and hosting is funded by the University of Würzburg, the Technical University of Dortmund and the Gisela and Reinhold Häcker Foundation.

Thanks to all sponsors, authorities and colleagues in Museums around the world who made this new kind of collection possible.
