Elizabeth TavaresThe Late Antiquity Modeling Project
Headed by Prof. Camille Leon Angelo (Religious Studies), the Late Antiquity Modeling Project (LAMP) is an international, interdisciplinary research collective that uses computational methods, such as 3D modeling, simulations, and machine learning, to reconstruct the embodied experiences of ancient buildings and landscapes. In so doing, the project crafts more accurate and embodied histories of religious communities across geographic and temporal contexts. Of particular interest to LAMP is how these embodied reconstructions might be leveraged to rewrite the history of the first centuries of Christianity.
