	Opening a Roman Coffin A remarkable Roman burial has been found at Boscombe Down, Wiltshire, UK. When we lifted the lid off a three tonne stone coffin we were surprised to discover that the coffin had not filled with soil. Instead, we found ourselves looking down on the skeleton of a woman who was cradling a young child in her arms.

	A Virtual Stonehenge Landscape This short film shows the landscape around Stonehenge as recorded by LIDAR survey (airborne 3D scanning). Millions of measurements were taken across the landscape, and here they have been turned into a 'solid' computer model to show how well the archaeology is recorded by this method. Prehistoric burial mounds (barrows), the great Cursus (a 2km Neolithic monument), the Bronze Age Avenue which links Stonehenge to the River Avon, and other henges such as Woodhenge and Durrington Walls are all clearly visible. It is possibly the first time that this data has been shown in this way, at 1:1 with no reduction of data quality to produce a perspective animation. To find out more technical information about the survey, visit the Stonehenge LIDAR section of the English Heritage website: english-heritage.org.uk	From: wessexarchaeology Views: 8692 15 ratings

	Seabed Prehistory Archaeologists have created a 3D visualisation of a whole prehistoric landscape now submerged 20 metres under the English Channel, and 8 miles off the West Sussex coast. This is how we believe it may have looked over 8000 years ago, based upon environmental and geophysical surveys; an estuary populated by families living from the river, sea and land; a river surrounded by salt marsh and forest.
