Book of the Gates and the Tomb of Ramesses I
Visit the virtual Blessed Dead! Explore the ancient Egyptian Netherworld on the walls of the tomb of Ramesses I in the Valley of the Kings in ancient Egypt.
Follow the solar boat of Ra as he travels through the netherworld, or Duat, in ancient Egypt, and the various gods and goddesses fight off the evil snake Apophis. He gives offerings and sustenance to the various spirits that he meets, and they return to life while he visits them before returning to their coffins and chapels, wailing as he departs.
This is an experimental guided tour / storytelling with 3d capture. I made a LiDAR scan of the tomb in the fall of 2023 and the story after to tell the narratives of the wall paintings.
I'm hoping in future versions to add animations to the character sprites and other interactive components--if people like it.
