A virtual flyover of Rome in 320 CE, when Constantine I was in charge.
Or how about a Google Streetview of Pompeii (as it is today)?
Or step back about three thousand years and consider this animation of how they built the Pyramids.
This is even fancier.
Thanks for posting these–that virtual fly-over of Rome is spectacular!
I agree with Sarah. I really appreciate all these links. If you go to the one on Khufu’s pyramid construction (which is really just a trailer), the next video on Youtube is the actual documentary itself and that alone is fascinating for anyone who’s interested in contruction or art history.
