Virtual Artifacts

For decades, Joara’s artifacts have only been accessible to the public through in-person traveling exhibitions and physical displays. But through 3D rendering, you can examine artifacts from every angle, viewing them through the eyes of a field archaeologist. This collection of 3D-rendered objects provides you with the ability to turn each artifact, examine every scar, and zoom into five centuries of unearthed history. Alongside these models, facts are displayed: the location found, our understanding of the purpose of the tools, and who might have used them in everyday life.
