Unearthing History: Digital Preservation of the Ancient Beit Lehi

Many of the historical milestones that happened anciently in the land of Israel are reflected by the settlement history of Beit Lehi , currently an active archaeological site southwest of Jerusalem. A long-lost village, hidden for centuries beneath layers of time, is gradually reemerging in the cave-dotted lowlands southwest of Jerusalem. In true Israeli fashion, the excavation of Beit Lehi-Beit Loya combines meticulous manual labor with the latest technological advancements.

Now, project leaders are sharing these captivating discoveries with the public, offering 3D views enhanced by immersive virtual reality.
