The Late Bronze Age Mycenaean cemetery of Aidonia, Greece, is a representative case of a vulnerable site. Tomb looting has occurred sporadically since the 1970s, when the Greek government was made aware of the site. Anthropogenic activities and natural denudation may affect the loss of structural integrity of tombs. In this contribution, terrestrial laser scanning and geosciences are combined to document the vulnerable cemetery through the generation of a tomb catalogue. The emphasis is on techniques applied to point clouds to extract architectural elements. The catalogue consists of 208 architectural and geological measurements, 112 qualitative observations, maps, and point clouds images displaying the architecture of 16 tombs. The tombs are mainly orientated northeast-southwest and northwest-southeast, and their average total length is 13 m. The average volume of chambers with preserved roofs is 46 m3.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":38225,"journal":{"name":"Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage","volume":"32 ","pages":"Article e00319"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212054824000043/pdfft?md5=8c7be0171d20bbc3944d64758278686c&pid=1-s2.0-S2212054824000043-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139821912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there are very limited review studies that have focussed on investigating factors such as characteristics of AR, classifications of cultural heritage (CH), use-cases, technologies, techniques, interfaces, platforms and the specific challenges faced in this context. This study aims to bridge this gap by conducting a systematic review of AR applications in the context of cultural heritage, referred to as AR-CH. A total of forty-five works published between the years 2013–2023 in the top 7 most popular indexed databases are reviewed. The systematic review has been conducted using the Kitchenham method, and the analysis of the findings was carried out using the PRISMA method. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the current state of AR-CH systems and outlines the research directions that require more investigation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":38225,"journal":{"name":"Digital Applications in Archaeology and Cultural Heritage","volume":"32 ","pages":"Article e00317"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139749722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this research is to use TLS to generate a 3D representation of the Pawon Cave. This model not only records and preserves the current structure of the cave but also allows for further in-depth reconstruction of the main hall of Pawon Cave and excavation possibilities. This 3D model substantiates the theory that the sepulchral chamber is isolated from other chambers of the cave and discovers that the main hall of Pawon Cave can accommodate approximately 30 people.
