- The output is the most comprehensive study of this kind, and extent, for Greek archaeology, presenting survey data, collected by the author over 12 years, from 232 ancient structures and their landscapes (90 archaeological sites), located in Cyprus, Greece, Italy and Turkey. Various levels and types of analysis are incorporated: survey data, archaeological finds, epigraphic material (including calendars), ancient texts (e.g. plays, poetry, astronomical texts, philosophical treatises). Furthermore, each of the 16 case studies combined reconstructions of ancient landscapes, buildings and skies using specialist astronomical, 3D and Virtual Reality software, along with cognitive theory, to explore ancient emotion and experience.
