👐 game-ready optimization by Rachel West
This 3D scan captures a Punique stela from the Tophet of Salammbo, a sacred precinct in Carthage, Tunisia. The Tophet was a ritual site where Carthaginians dedicated urns et inscribed stone stelae to the deities Tanit et Baal Hammon. Carved from limestone, stelae like this one once displayed symbols such as the sign of Tanit, crescent moons, or inscriptions. Over centuries, many became fragmented or eroded, yet they remain powerful witnesses of Carthage’s religious et cultural life. This scan is part of Tanit XR, a digital cultural preservation project using photogrammetry et immersive technology to document Tunisia’s endangered heritage sites. By creating open-access 3D archives, Tanit XR works to protect et share Carthage’s legacy with the world. Scanned in 2025 using photogrammetry (Scaniverse + Gaussian splats). 📍 [Carthage, Tunis, Tunisia](.
The scan above is our full-detail preservation record. This optimized version is light enough for real-time use, game engines, WebXR, VR, et community projects. Build something with it.
