The
Romanian archaeological patrimony is one of the richest ones
in Europe, but it is not sufficiently popularised. The ARHEOTIM
archaeology portal provides a way to integrate the Romanian
archaeological values in the great European patrimony.
Following the footsteps of important archaeological portals,
already acknowledged at an international level, ARHEOTIM wishes
to fill an empty page on www Romanian space.
The structure of the portal is a didactic one, addressing
primary to college students but also to all those interested
in archaeology. ARHEOTIM includes approximately 2000 links
grouped in 12 categories: Regions; Techniques/Methods; Themes;
Epochs; Theory; Artefacts; Romanian archaeology; Personalized
pages; Maps/Images; Portals/Directories; Archaeology for children;
On-line magazines.
In order to be a genuine guide in archaeology, ARHEOTIM also
includes a section referring to the Methodology of suffering
and interrogation in www, a specialized Forum for discussions,
an Electronic Magazine and an internal Search motor.
The most interesting chapter however, is the one referring
to projects undertaken by History and Archaeology Study Centre
(CSIATim), which has as a goal the familiarization, at a medium
level, of the archaeological sites in western Romania.
Within this project 2 multimedia products are presented: e-Tibiscum
and e-Praetorium.
Both web pages are complex projects that combine written text
with sound, image and 3D modelling in an attempt to offer
an image as clear and complete as those provided by the best
archaeological sites concerned with Greco-Roman civilization,
in western Romania.
