Recommendation of: Spatiotemporal reconstruction of pot burial excavations. Round#2

The integration of digital recording technologies into archaeological practice has fundamentally transformed how excavation processes are documented, analysed, and communicated.In recent years, three-dimensional recording techniques have increasingly enabled archaeologists to capture not only static archaeological remains but also the temporal dynamics of excavation itself.This topic formed a central theme of Session S24, "Digital Fieldwork Documentation in Archaeology: Innovations, Challenges and Standards," at the Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology (CAA) 2025 conference, where the work of Grigoriadi and Papaioannou was originally presented.Their study exemplifies how emerging digital documentation techniques can enhance both archaeological recording and the communication of excavation processes to wider audiences.The paper by Grigoriadi & Papaioannou (2026) presents a workflow combining Structure-from-Motion (SfM)photogrammetry with interactive 3D visualization to document the micro-excavation of a pot burial from the Phaleron Delta Cemetery in Attica, Greece.Through sequential image acquisition and photogrammetric reconstruction, the authors generated a series of three-dimensional models capturing successive microexcavation stages.These models were subsequently integrated into an interactive application developed in the Unity game engine, allowing users to explore both the spatial configuration and temporal progression of the excavation through a dynamic interface.This approach highlights the potential of digital documentation not
