Welcome to the Virtual Rosewood website. This site was created as a way for archaeologists to investigate/represent a vanished site without conducting archaeological investigations (e.g. survey, excavations, etc.).

The majority of this website is dedicated to the first version of our attempts at virtually reconstructing the town of Rosewood the night before it was burned in early 1923.

In addition, there are files that allow visitors to visualize this historical data on their own computers by downloading Google Earth files.

The Links page has a handfull of links that will take users to other Rosewood sites.

The Maps/GIS pages document the process of creating, managing, and publishing this information. The over-arching goal was broadly conceived as a way to democratize this knowledge.

Visit the Contact page to learn about this site's authors and contributors. At present, a number of conference papers and upcoming publications reference this site, to see links or download copies of these, please visit the contacts page.
