Abstract
The idea of being able to research and handle an archaeological find from anywhere in the world, without removing it from its museum case, seemed futuristic to most only ten years ago. Technological advancement, and cooperation between sites and museums - who hold the finds - and research institutions - who hold the technical equipment and 'know-how' - have made the 3D scanning of collections a reality on Hadrian's Wall. This chapter talks about the 3D scanning of some of Vindolanda's collections.
