	Learning Sites, Bill Riseman and the Fortress of Buhen, Egypt
		the Fortress of Buhen reconstruction, Bill Riseman pushed the limits of computer technology in the service of education and archaeological research, synthesizing all the techniques he had explored, while producing the models of Giza, Gebel Barkal, Nuri, and Meroe, into a single complex and very large reconstructed ancient environment.
		Fortress at Buhen extended along the west bank of the Nile River for over 150m and incorporated the latest defensive technology that even Medieval military engineers would have envied: moats carved 3m deep into bedrock, revetments, drawbridges, bastions, buttresses, ramparts, battlements, embrasures, loopholes, and catapult stations.
		Subsequently, the Buhen virtual environment data were transposed from the Kubota system to a comparable Evans and Sutherland Freedom 3000 image accelerator with a Sun SPARCstation serving as host, supplied to us by Evans and Sutherland.

		Another refinement was pursued at the temple of Buhen in Nubia, dedicated to a local form of the falcon-headed Horus.
		Buhen was built and decorated jointly by Tuthmose III and Hatshepsut, fairly early in the reign, but Hatshepsut was not content with peripheral mention, as at the nearby temple of Semna.
		The temple of Buhen also reveals to us that during this long experimentation with her titles, royal names, regalia, costume, and pose, Hatshepsut actively honored the memory of her deceased husband, Tuthmose II, who appears on the central axis in the innermost sanctuary, face to face with Horus of Buhen himself.

	Buhen - The Solution
		Using the techniques tested on evidence from Giza, Gebel Barkal, Meroe, and Nuri, a 3-dimensional vector model and associated texture maps of the fortifications of Buhen were created (including a simulation of the interior decoration of some spaces and the actual size and type of stone blocks and mudbrick coursing).
		We had planned to develop the Buhen world further by linking the reconstruction to reconstructions of the site at different periods of history, so that you, as the virtual traveler, could move between these, traveling in time, seeing history pass before your eyes.
		Also, as we were experimenting with Buhen, the World Wide Web was just developing, and we worked on ideas for connecting to the expanding number of digital archaeological libraries becoming available on websites.

	The Buhen Fortress
		Situated on the west bank of the Nile, the Buhen fortress was frequented by Egyptian warships and trading vessels.

		Before a siege, a drawbridge located within the west gate of the garrison wall (below, centre) would be retracted on rollers; the garrison could still communicate with the outside world by means of a tunnel.

		Stage I of Aniba, Kubban and Ikkur predate Senusret’s fortress at Buhen.
