Govan 16

3D Model

Govan 16 (Stirling Maxwell’s numbering; ECMS 14) is one of 31 early medieval recumbent cross-slabs originally recorded at Govan Old in 1899. This is currently displayed upright and against the wall, but these monuments would have originally laid flat in the churchyard, likely marking the grave of a significant early medieval individual. This stone has been damaged; there are no records for what the lower part of the monument may have looked like.

This 3D model was created as part of Dr Megan Kasten’s PhD, available here: http://theses.gla.ac.uk/74266/. The 3D model was created with SfM photogrammetry, using Agisoft Metashape, and edited with Zbrush.
