Ancient Rome in 3D - NOW and THEN views - Video footage
#ancient #Rome #3D
Famous locations of Rome, now in a “then and now” format. You can see two video sequences from the same point at the same time. Today we will walk through the Forums, the Colosseum, the Circus Maximus and the Baths of Caracalla and see what they looked like in the 4th century CE.
We are the "History in 3D" team and our goal is to create the most detailed, accurate and complete 3D reconstruction of ancient Rome. We use our detailed virtual reconstruction to demonstrate the grandeur and beauty of the Eternal City as it was during the Roman Empire.

I am one of those people who stare at ruins for hours, trying to imagine what they once looked like. I love this channel. Kudos to the diligent work you put in!

The baths of Caracalla from the outside looks like a modern office building. Just install glass panels and you couldn't tell that it's a building designed around 2,000 years ago.

Yes, quite a common thing for roman architecture (late period) - rather honest outside, and the utmost luxury inside.

To be fair they didn't destroy the buildings when they looked like this, the baths for example stopped working in the 6th century when the aqueducts were destroyed and then they were abandoned and overgrown, earthquakes toppled columns and walls and from that was scavenged material to build churches and housing. Don't forget the people of medieval Rome were living in one vast ruin of a city built for a population of a million not the ten thousand or so by that point, they just needed to survive so saving non working, crumbling ruins that had once been a bathhouse would have made no sense.

Quando Roma cadde, i popoli barbari e avversari contribuirono alla sua distruzione, saccheggiando ed esportando materiale edilizio riutilizzato per le successive costruzioni medievali. Anche la Chiesa, che all'epoca iniziava ad avere potere, si appropriò non solo di parti di edifici come marmi, ma accumulò oro e altre cose di valore per fondare il proprio impero cristiano. Il Sacro romano impero divenne potente portandosi dietro la scia della cultura classica romana e con la conversione di molti popoli al cristianesimo.

Thank you for your donation, but as I said many times already, I never reply to such questions. Any programmer uses a number of software programs, which he combines in a unique way based on his own experience. Almost all basic 3d programs are equivalent, there is not a single one which can make 'magic' on its own.

Very interesting👍🏛️Greetings from Belgium😉🇧🇪👋
Magnificent work! Congratulations. I would like to add that most of the destruction of the great Imperial buildings was carried out by the fanatical Christians and later on, in a more methodical manner, by the Catholic Church, determined to erase any vestiges of the old Roman civilization. For a well-documented description of that process I recommend Catherine Nixey´s book "THE DARKENING AGE"
@historyin3d
4 ай бұрын
I would recommend reading the Nixey´s book only in the context of other studies. This book is VERY biased and contains a number of very arbitrary generalizations. For a REALLY well-documented description of that process it is necessary to begin with the fundamental works of Lanciani and Gregorovius, and then follow the path of main studies of Roman topography till our time. Thank you for your kind words about our project!
Well, the circus Maximus is still there, not like it was..but still pretty impressive. Talking about Rome more than 2, 000 years ago..wow.
