so were indeed joined by Professor Peter Manuelian, who works on Egyptology here at Harvard.

And among the goals for today isn't necessarily Thio get you get you to decide exactly what final projects you're gonna work on but deceived you with the first of a series of ideas and domains outside of CS and outside of engineering more generally.

And what's so exciting about Peter's work is that of all the faculty I know on campus, he does such an amazing job at bringing technology to a very, very, very own Oldfield and his work in virtual reality and restoration of artifacts with three D printing and beyond it just wonderfully inspiring.

And so the goal ultimately for today is really just that to inspire and to get folks thinking about possible applications of CS to this world.

I love this concept of this course mixing digital applications and the humanities.

There's some social sciences in there, too, because of archaeology.

And then, of course, on the science side, too, with computer science.

So I'm delighted to try toe mix all this stuff together.

So I've been running for a long, long time, almost 18 years now, Something called the Giza Project Not to be confused with Gaza.

This is Giza, the Great Pyramids to the west of modern Cairo.

Think about 2500 BC, and this has a strong, a tremendous Harvard legacy, based on excavations by someone named George Andrew Risner, Harvard Class of 18 89.

And in 1905 he brought something together called the Harvard M.

That stands for Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Expedition, And this is one of the longest running and most successful expeditions ever.

It went for about 40 years and worked at 23 different sites.

So everything you see in red and even off the screen down into the Sudan ancient Nubia we're part of the sites that he worked out.

So that's what we're gonna focus on today.

And I want to just show you a few of the ideas and challenges and technologies and exciting things were working on.

Maybe some of these will lead to some final project ideas for you and perhaps not.

So when you're dealing with Jesu, you've got all kinds of cool data sets.

You've got the data set that's still out at the site.

You may all know the three famous pyramids.

There's no decoration inside those those air royal tombs for pharaohs of the fourth Dynasty.

But then, surrounding the pyramids are hundreds and hundreds of rectangular structures called Master Baz.

These air tombs of non royal people, the elites of the pyramid age and inside many of them you get wonderful decorations, relief carvings, paintings, inscriptions.

These are the primary sources for anything you want to know about ancient Egypt, how they dressed, how they interacted, their craftsmanship, their costumes hire a graphic texts and grammar and funerary rituals, how they treated livestock, what their architecture looked like.

It's all there in these frozen moments for us, Egyptologist.

And then there's the other data set that came away from Geza.

First it was plunder than it was responsible.

Archaeology R H U M F A expedition work from about 1905 to 1942 when George Reisner died at the pyramids, and he's actually buried in old Cairo.

So all this is the kind of stuff that the excavators find, and they've ended up in museums all over the world, many of them right here in Boston, at the Museum of Fine Arts.

And along the way there were spectacular masterpieces as well, like this one, which is in the M F A, probably one of the top five sculptures from any period in in all of Egyptian history.

So what's the raw material that our project has been using?

It's this stuff rather unromantic looking, 21,000 glass plate expedition photographs, large size, almost the letter sized paper to midsize to four by five inches.

Drawings, maps and plans, architectural sections, figural drawings of wall scenes and hire, a graphic texts and other decoration boxes and boxes of prints and manuscript and things, published articles and then unpublished stuff is well, so how do you take a massive archive like this from an old expedition and try to make sense out of it?

Because who's got the time to get a grant to come up to Boston and open every one of those boxes?

We start in the middle with an individual tomb called the Master Ba of a single person.

Maybe there's more than one person buried there, but then we round up everything that's related to that.

It's made by a company called Gallery Systems in New York.

If you're interested in museum studies air going into the museum world, I would suggest that you might want to get comfortable with TMS because it's used in 700 museums around the world.

So about 2000 Fields sequel database Pretty useful.

And all of these things have to find their homes in the various media modules of the of the database.

So for one given tomb, do a search for it and up comes well.

I have this many photographs, old excavation shots, modern color photography.

The object register, the database of its time right where rising and the team gave a sketch of every object gave it a number.

The archaeological providence, new photography drawings?

So we chugged along, doing this with the remnants or the archive of the Harvard M F A expedition for many years and then realize doesn't do you any good if you know everything about two number one right here because it was dug by the Americans.

But nothing by this about this tomb over here, because the Germans excavated it or the Italians did.

So we went on the road years ago, and we rounded up all the big players.

All of these cities and institutions dug directly at Giza, and they all got stuff.

And so we signed agreements with all of them that we got them to hand over all their photos and diaries and maps and plans and things.

And, of course, it never comes in in the format that you want to go right into your sequel database.

It's gotta be massaged, so there's no end of data entry.

It's now but frozen since 2011 and then we've just built this new one at Harvard.

It's ah, giza dot f a s that Harvard daddy, you There it is.

And it's, ah, more modern and robust website.

You can see the totals if you just hit the go button without even typing anything.

You'll get the list of everything that's in there right now, all cross linked and hopefully intelligently reference.

This is still a work in progress and a lot of the cooler things like saving collections and sharing them with colleagues.

Those things aren't quite built yet, and we want to get to those.

We also want to put the page viewer in called Mirador, the Triple I F page viewing system that was developed between Harvard and Stanford that lets you zoom in on images and flip through them book like an annotate them and do all kinds of cool stuff.

So there a lot of things that are still coming, And then we've also moved into the three D modeling section of the world here.

So it's not just the old Dig photos on the discoveries, but now we want to cruise around the site, fly over it in three d.

We get views of tombs both above ground chambers and underground chambers that we wouldn't get in any other way.

In this case, you see the original excavators section drawing and plan drawing superimposed in this studio max file, right with the three D models you can compare and see how you're doing.

The other variable, then, is avatars right?

Bringing humans in, which is always tricky, because are they dressed appropriately?

And are these guys doing the right stuff?

It's a whole another level of complexity and rendering, and then if you're going to get it on the Web, it's pretty tricky, too.
