Red River Dugout Canoe

3D Model

This is a reconstruction of a 33.3ft (10.1m) dugout canoe that was discovered in the Red River in Louisiana. The wooden vessel was laser scanned to create a detailed as-is 3D model, which was then used to develop this reconstruction. The real canoe is currently being conserved at the Conservation Research Laboratory at Texas A&M University for the Louisiana Office of Cultural Development, Division of Archaeology.
