Abstract

Archaeological databases are required to store a wide range of data about archaeological objects. Multimedia, spatial and temporal requirements are placing new demands on these databases. Virtual models of archaeological sites require new storage and search facilities, including searching of 3D graphics for virtual and physical restoration of archaeological finds. We examine the architecture, design philosophy and proposed implementation of the 3D MURALE multimedia database, which will be used by archaeologists to construct a virtual model of the Sagalassos excavation site in Turkey.
