Digital technology has the potential to change theway architectural history is presented andperceived. A primary premise of this book is that toproperly represent and research architecturalhistorical reconstructions, two aspects of theobject of study should be examined: the physical andthe cultural identity of the structure or site. Themost effective tool for the representation of boththese two aspects is virtual reality.The research begins by assessing theadvantages and the challenges of using VRmethodology for architectural reconstructions.
