Ancient Rome in 3D - Temple of Venus and Roma, detailed 3D reconstruction
#ancient #Rome #3d
Explore one of the most detaily reconstructed parts of our "Rome in 3D" project -the complex of the huge temple of Venus and Roma. This ensemble stood just opposite the Colosseum on a high platform. It was a personal architectural project of Emperor Hadrian.
We paid attention to a detailed reconstruction of how the temple could have been decorated on the outside. We also recreated in 3D one of the most important interiors - Western Cella with a statue of the goddess Roma Aeterna.
0:00 Introduction, aerial view, main information about the temple.
1:13 View from the Colosseum side, eastern facade, and Venus-colored fronton.
2:14 South facade, Vicus Curiarum, and Arch of Titus.
3:14 North facade, Temple of Tellus, Basilica of Maxentius, Colossus, and Colosseum.
3:43 Huge columns of the temple.
4:44 Side porticoes, now/then comparisons.
5:00 Perspective of Colossus Solis from the temple.
6:00 Approaching the temple along the Via Sacra.
7:00 Western facade and close-up of temple decorations.
8:53 Western cella interior, with the statue of the goddess Roma.
11:02 Temple without a roof in the 7th century, beginning of the destruction.

Amazing reconstruction, going even beyond imagination as ancient Rome must have usually been. Congratulations, it is worth every second you spent working on it.

Thank you! Happy to hear!
I'm gonna go this week to the Temple of Venus and show this video to my wife while being there, to show her how this building looked. Thank you!
Rome needs to reconstruct this temple in all its glory. Would make a terrific tourist attraction and example of Roman architectural excellence.

It would be amazing but international laws about heritage are against any reconstruction, on the grounds that 1. it is necessary to show the history of the monument, therefore also its destruction is considered history and 2. the few remaining parts of the original building may not be strong enough to be incorporated in a modern building.

Modern building codes would be a major obstacle. Most of the decor was done by hand. The skills needed for that kind of work are mostly now lost to history. The expense would be incalculable. Rome had the advantage of drowning in wealth from conquered lands and the availability of slave labor. And as noted above, it could not be done w/o irreparably harming what was left of the original structure.

Thank you. Also, the fade in/out of new to old really helps visualize for those of us who have been there (multiple times) but still have problems placing things.
It's disappointing that so many of these beautiful buildings are gone today.

Give thanks to Christianity in Greece for not wanting to rebuild the Parthenon. Also, Rome is very Christianized, the reconstruction of these buildings (for religious purposes) will never come to fruition.
I never tire of learning about the Roman Empire. Awesome infrastructure!
Fabulous! I walked these spaces as a teenager, when a student in Rome ....
Fantastic reconstruction! Thank you! 🤩

So indebted to you and your team for the calibre of work that has gone into creating this majestic reconstruction. Truly is awe inspiring.

Thank you so much for giving us this glimpse of the imposing imperial Rome.
And under or within that concrete base are the remains of the vestibule to part of Nero's Domus Aurea.

Incrível 😮😮😮 o seu trabalho faz mais vídeos como este, eu adoro a história do império romano, se eu fosse o presidente de Roma eu reconstruir tudo da antiga Roma
Exellent. I would like to know more about the dedtruction af the temple , how or who was responsible for the finals stage of the temple.

The Temple was most likely stripped of its treasures, ornamentation and statues either during the sack of 410, or the sack of 455. I'm betting on the latter, as the Vandal sack was of longer duration (2 weeks) and more thorough than that of the Visigoths (3 days). The fabric of the building remained intact, and King Theodoric of the Ostrogoths ordered the facade to be restored in the early 500s. As the narrator described, the bronze roof tiles were confiscated in the early 7th century. The structure was wrecked beyond repair in the 9th century, most likely during the massive earthquake of 847 (which also heavily damaged the Basilica of Maxentius), and during the Renaissance the marble of the building was melted in lime kilns to build other structures. The columns would have been repurposed as well.
Grandios 😊
Feast for the eyes!
Great more videos plis
Orașele din zilele noastre la arhitectură, reprezintă ceva tern, fără valoare în comparație cu arhitectura,cu construcțiile din Roma antică!Sunt uluită de măreția și frumusețea arhitecturii romane,de cum arăta Roma antică!
2000 years ago it was more beautyful then now
Wonderful video! - I wonder if Hadrian wanted to equal or surpass the great temple of Artemis at Ephesus?
Thank you for all you have done to create this 3D video. I guess we will always wonder what happened to the remains of the buildings that are no longer there.
Would love to see these environments re-rendered using Stable Diffusion with realism prompts and eventually Sora.
I'd buy a detailed freely explorable ancient Rome in VR content. I'm sure many would. You already have the models, it would not be too hard to make it into an explorable VR environment.
This makes me realize that movies don't even compare to the reality!
Hopefully one day I can view this in VR
You may have touched upon this in other comments, video or posts, but what sources do you use to figure out what statues would have been used, colour schemes, detaild and more? I'm very curious.
Bellissimo. Perfetto nelle proporzioni e nella prospettiva. Le persone che si muovono danno vivacità e maestosità al tempio piu grande dell'Impero romano (tempio di Giove a Baalbek permettendo?)
Great job I walked in the anciest Rome ❤

because many people who succumb to the abrahamic faiths want to deny people from having this. they don't want these temples, built by and led by pagans to come back. That or because it's damn expensive and we probably don't have the precision to make these again, or because they don't want to in general.

Fantastic! The public buildings of ancient Roma are not surpassed by modern nations. There is no longer dedication to national glory through architecture. The fascist regimes of Italy and Germany in the 1930s planned to prioritise this kind of construction.
