Masada Fortress -RAWscan3D Model
Masada (Hebrew: מצדה metsada, “fortress”) is an ancient fortification in the Southern District of Israel situated on top of an isolated rock plateau, akin to a mesa. It is located on the eastern edge of the Judaean Desert, overlooking the Dead Sea 20 km (12 mi) east of Arad. Herod the Great built palaces for himself on the mountain and fortified Masada between 37 and 31 BCE. According to Josephus, the siege of Masada by troops of the Roman Empire at the end of the First Jewish–Roman War ended in the mass suicide of 960 people, the Sicarii rebels and their families hiding there. Masada is one of Israel’s most popular tourist attractions. wikipedia

Thank you, amazing piece.
Masada modeling is necessary for my project. Is there any way we can use this modeling?

Hi there,
I'm messaging from Windfall Films, a television production company based in the UK. We're currently producing a series for a major internation broadcaster where we reconstruct ancient monuments in cgi. One of episodes is concentrating on Masada and it would be incredibly useful to be able to use accurate photogrammetry to base our cgi on. Would you be willing to allow us to use this model for this purpose? If so, please email me at joe.gess@windfallfilms.com
Best,
Joe
