🏛 The “ANCIENT KYDONIA HISTORY TOUR” is a research project funded by the EU and implemented by three partners in collaboration with the research team of the Technical University of Crete (Surreal Team), the Hellenic Ministry of Culture, Ephorate of Antiquities of Chania and the Aegean Solutions S.A. The project introduces an unprecedented / innovative exploration of the Ancient City of Chania (Ancient Kydonia) through augmented reality (AR) and music investment in a playful style (Serious Gaming). The project aims to motivate users to explore the historicity of six (6) historical monuments within the city of Chania, as well as to get to know the finds of that time, within the Archaeological Museum of Chania, through Hololens II technology and other applications. The chronological period, which the project focuses on, is 1650 B.C. – 3rd c. B.C.
