Sketchfab Cultural Heritage & History Top 10, Week 49 2023
A collection of some of the best cultural and historical 3D models published on sketchab.com over the last week.
Each week I scour Sketchfab for interesting and innovative 3D captures and reconstructions, then distill what I find down to just 10 3D scenes. I hope you enjoy the video peek of this week’s collection, but please do click or tap on through to interact with all 10 subjects in full 3D as well - you won’t regret it!
This week you’ll find artefacts from Nazca, and Koban cultures alongside ancient Roman, Egyptian, and Chinese subjects from sites and collections in the UK, US, Germany, and UAE.
Several of the 3D models include excellent annotated tours (see the second subject in the video, “St. Johannis - Mainz” by Aron Mimietz for an example) and—even better—several are downloadable for free under Creative Commons licenses. (thanks David Fletcher, Natural History Museum Vienna, Minneapolis Institute of Art, and The British Museum!)
