Abstract

The arrangement of the five central figures of the east pediment of the temple of Zeus at Olympia has been the subject of scholarly debates since the discovery of the fragments more than a century ago. Most recently the author has started a project to approach this controversy in a new way, by producing a virtual 3D reconstruction of the group. Digital models of the statues are produced by scanning the original fragments and by reconstructing them virtually in order to test the feasibility and aesthetic effects of the different reconstructions. The present report focuses on the various technical difficulties encountered during the scanning campaign in the Archaeological Museum of ancient Olympia and gives an overview of the work in progress.
