Paris, a Roman city

[Ferran]

Visitors to the Paris, a Roman City website can explore the city's main monuments from the early Roman Empire — which has completely vanished from view. Users can navigate through numerous relics and locations such as the forum, the theatre, the amphitheatre ("Les Arenes de Lutece") and the baths ("Les Thermes de Cluny"). The forgotten past is brought back to life and re-discovered. Users can satisfy their curiosity by interacting with objects discovered during archaeological excavations — such as a fibula, a statuette, a vase, a pocketknife. Thanks to overlay maps, users can step back and forth in time. For those who even want to make a ‘real’ visit to Roman Paris, an information guide is provided which leads travellers along traces of the past through the streets of today.
