Assyrians in Bologna exhibition: the discovery of the people of Mesopotamia
The exhibition ‘The Assyrians in the Shadow of the Two Towers‘ is to communicate, through a new formula, the historical contents of the Neo–Assyrian Empire, which developed in Mesopotamia from the 9th to the 7th century BC. All the objects are presented through their 3D printed digital models, thus creating a sustainable exhibition of great value at the same time.
