Reproduction of archaeological finding is very important for the conservation and dissemination of cultural heritage of every country.
There are many different processes that can be applied
Using new and innovative techniques it is possible to reproduce a high quality of any object. In addition, the new tools can help us to understand the ancient technological achievements and experience the way ancient where thinning.
During the reproduction there are two major and very difficult problems that the engineering science has to solve and with this way relieve archaeologists.
- Exact construction of the object that will look exactly the same as the original one.
- The reproduction of copies without damage or destroys the high value archaeological finding.
