Archaeology Antropolgy Technology

The disciplines of archaeology and anthropology reveal the common cultural heritage of humanity and transfer this information to future generations. One of the leading agendas of contemporary archaeology and anthropology is public archaeology practices intending to pass the information on ancient human societies to society accurately.

In this context, we employed anthropological techniques to create facial reconstructions of three people who lived in Juliopolis about 2000 years ago. In this way, Ankara residents and tourists visiting the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations can meet these people through intriguing digital presentations.

Exhibition

The Faces of Juliopolis Exhibition brings people face-to-face with their ancient ancestors who lived in Ankara.

Publicity

The exhibition intends to bring forth awareness about the Ancient City of Juliopolis, promote the city, and raise the consciousness of cultural heritage. In addition, the exhibition presents the unique natural and cultural environment of Juliopolis as well as its history. The results of archaeological and anthropological studies are demonstrated together with the artifacts from this ancient city, which has never been exhibited before.

Technology

Moreover, three-dimensional models and animations demonstrate the death practices of the Roman Period of the ancient city.
