How did Rome appear in ancient times?
Usually when we imagine ancient Rome, we imagine the shining world of white marble buildings and sculptures. However, this is not a valid picture. Although many Roman and Greek – grades and monuments now appear to be white (or gray), they were actually shiny. The whiteness we see today is the result of years of season.
One of the most famous monuments in ancient Rome is the Arch of Tights, built by the Roman Emperor Domeni around 81 CE after the death of his brother and predecessor, Emperor Tights. The monastery celebrates the tight military victories during the first Jewish Roman war (66-74 CE)-when the Romans burned the notorious temple in Jerusalem. A panel of Arch depicts treasures occupied by the temple of Jerusalem in the streets of Rome, including a large menor.

Today the tights look colorless, but how did this monument appear in ancient Rome?
Using technology, an international team of scholars has digitally restored a panel from tights to its original color – which offers us a glimpse of the ancient Rome. Details of their rehabilitation efforts in detail about the Steven Fire of Yashiv University, Peter J. Sheritz of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and Donald H from the Institute’s Donald H Sanders for History of History in the article. “Real color: Digital construction restores the original talent in the monastery of reconstruction,” Appeared in the May/June 2017 issue Bible archeology reviews.

The team focused on the menor panel. After making a 3D scan of this panel, they could see the scene in more detail than ever, which made them digitally restores parts of it. The team then scored the panel for color symbols. The signs of yellow lubricants were discovered on Menora, which confirmed that Menura was actually given yellow color. These results are associated with the account of the Roman Victory Parade of the Jewish historian Josephs, in which he describes Menora as gold.

The team then added the color to the rest of the panel – in life while living the ancient scene. They gave the background sky blue blue, white colors, overgarts red purple, sheets green, lorel beer pale, sacred utensils, gold silver, and leather and wooden brown. They painted white, black and gold. Moreover, they added the three symbols to the Roman winners. These labels were easily based on Josephs’ text.

To confirm that their reconstruction is correct, the team hopes that they will soon return to the tights’ chip to scan the remaining menor panel for color.
