The 3D scanning was carried out by Factum’s Gabriel Coleman and ARCHiOx’s Dylan Schirmacher. The marble relief (460-450 BC) is thought to come from a weights and measurements office of an Ancient Greek market, as it shows several standard Greek measurements such as fingers, a hand, arm, and foot. The slab, although broken, would measure an orguia (the ancient fathom, 1.85m) if the missing section was reconstructed.
