Modern Technology to Study Ancient History

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM
AND MAY BE UPDATED.
CARL AZUZ, CNN 10 ANCHOR: I`m Carl Azuz for CNN 10.
Our coverage this week starts with a tragedy at a small church in a small American
community. About 30 miles outside of San Antonio, Texas, is a place named
Sutherland Springs.
Yesterday, during service at the First Baptist Church, police say a man entered the
building and started shooting. A county sheriff says more than 20 people were killed,
numerous others were injured, though we didn`t know the exact the number when we
produced today`s show. At least two medical facilities were treating victims of the
shooting.
There was a chase (pursuit) after the attack. The suspect apparently fled into a
neighboring county where he also died. Officials were trying to find out if he took his
own life or if he was killed by police, in addition to what his motive might have been.
A business owner in Sutherland Springs says it`s a very small but very tightly knit
(closely integrated and bound in love or friendship) community. And U.S.
leaders from President Donald Trump to Texas Governor Greg Abbott, to Senator
John Cornyn who serves Texas indicated they were praying for the people affected.
Five days after a terroristic attack in New York City, there was a sign of resilience
(resistance) yesterday when 50,000 runners were expected to hit the road (start
the journey) in the TCS New York City Marathon. City and state officials had
promised the event would be safe, following an attack on October 31st that killed
eight people in the borough (municipality) of Manhattan. That was the worst
terrorist act in New York City since it was a target on September 11th, 2001.
For Sunday`s race, the city lined (covered) the roadways with sand trucks and police
vehicles to protect pedestrians. Two and a half million spectators were expected and
of those who took on the 26-mile challenge, one said she couldn`t live her life afraid
that something like a terrorist attack could happen. The threat couldn`t stop her
from accomplishing (reaching) her goal to run. Some other runners that CNN spoke
to gave a similar message.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
AZUZ (voice-over): Ten-second trivia:
Which of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World is the oldest?
Hanging Gardens of Babylon, Colossus of Rhodes, State of Zeus at Olympia, Great
Pyramid of Giza?
The Great Pyramid isn`t only the oldest, it`s the only Wonder in the Ancient World
that is still mostly intact.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
AZUZ: Researchers recently discovered a void (an empty space) in the Great
Pyramid they hadn`t known about before. By void, we mean a space that`s almost 100
feet long. The journal "Nature" which details the finding says this is the first time
since the 1800s that a space this significant has been identified in the pyramid. But
whether it adds to the structure`s mysteries or answers ancient secrets is up for
debate.
A spokesman for Egypt`s government says there`s no evidence that suggests this
space lives to an undiscovered gallery or burial chamber. And archeologists point out
that the pyramid has other voids, so this could just be one that hadn`t been found
yet. Still, there are a lot of unanswered questions about the Great Pyramid, and
researchers hope this discovery will help them learn how it was built.
They`re not allowed to drill (perforate) holes or use cameras. To identify this void,
they used equipment to track (monitor) cosmic ray particles inside the structure.
But that`s not the only way in which modern technology is helping archeologists study
ancient history.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
UNDIENTIFIED MALE: The magic is seeing this with candlelight.
REPORTER: Adam Lowe freely admits he is a man with an obsession -- to document
the tomb of an ancient Egyptian pharaoh, Seti I.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The tomb actually tells how the people from 3,500 years ago
think different things, have different philosophies, value different things, the way
they thought can be read through the very articulate evidence that`s on the walls of
these tombs.
And if we can really build a dialogue that crosses time and use technology to help
that, I think we`re at incredibly exciting moment.
REPORTER: Just a room you think, but what a room known among Egyptologists as
"Hall of Beauties". What`s just as astonishing is that this is in fact a facsimile
(reproduction), a precise recreation in the museum in Switzerland of how the room
looked exactly 200 years ago when the tomb was discovered.
Adam Lowe`s specialist art company Factum Arte has made tomb facsimiles before.
They scanned the tomb of Tutankhamun in 2009 and made a replica now installed as a
tourist attraction in Egypt. The same methods were used for Seti`s tomb.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We`re now making high resolutions molds using 3D printing
technologies, from laser scan data that have never involved any contact with wall.
REPORTER: No contact at all?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Zero contact at any point in any of the operation.
REPORTER: The Seti replica was meld (blended, merged) in the Factum Arte
workshop in Madrid and a fine flexible skin added with the print after the frescos.
The facsimile was assembled in panels.
Seti`s tomb was discovered in 1817 by an Italian circus strongman (male
bodybuilder, muscleman), an adventure known as the Great Belzoni. The vivid
decoration entranced (fascinated, delighted) him.
And as a record, a series of watercolors was painted. But soon, whole sections of the
wall were hacked off (cut off with an axe) as trophies. This fragment ended up in
the British museum.
This original relief of the Goddess Maat with a feather headdress is from a museum
in Florence. The only way you can tell that she`s a real thing is because she`s under
protected glass. The copies aren`t.
This is what Seti`s tomb looks like now with virtual reality. It`s still absolutely
extraordinary, multiple rooms, and a descent of over 130 meters into the rock, still
the longest and deepest tomb in the Valley of the Kings. But now irreparably
damaged, once gloriously decorated, but now patchy (uneven in quality/despareja)
and in places almost entirely bleached (faded/desteñida) of color.
For this exhibition in Basel (Basilea), they made facsimiles of several rooms from
Seti`s tomb as they are now.
Aliyah Ishmael is the first Egyptian trained in the new digital technology used for
making the facsimiles. She spent four months scanning the tombs last year.
What was it like?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Being in the tomb. The first time was insane. It was just
magical, because, you know, the tomb of Seti I was close and nobody could have seen
it for about 40 years.
And then, all of a sudden, I get to go inside it. It was like, what? You know? It was
one of those like dreams come true sort of, for an Egyptologist.
When I entered her like the first time where I got to Basel and I was like, I feel like
I`m in tomb. The only difference is that there`s not enough dust. But apart from
that, it`s just the same feeling.
REPORTER: But arguably (it can be argued/discutiblemente), the high point of this
exhibition is the regeneration of the "Hall of Beauties", Seti with color back in his
cheeks, just as he was found way back in 1817.
This is resurrection.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: In a way, it is resurrection. Yes, absolutely. And this is
where without becoming Disneyland or Kitsch (of bad taste) or whatever, in
a scientific and well-informed way, the facsimile can prove this, what we say at this
added value can show more than what you can see in the tomb.
REPORTER: Adam Lowe will resume (continue) scanning other rooms in Seti`s tomb
earlier next year. The long-term aim is to make a facsimile of it all, and place it in the
Valley of the Kings.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And we have to remember, the Egyptians didn`t want these
tombs to change. They made them to last for eternity, but never to be visited.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
AZUZ: Guinness World Record you probably didn`t know about, most people dressed
as penguins. It was set in the United Kingdom in 2015. At that time, 624 people did
this. But this isn`t that event. This one is bigger. It was held recently at Ohio`s
Youngstown State University, whose mascot is the Penguin. Nine hundred seventy-two
students and alumni somehow found 972 penguin costumes and hopped (jumped on
one leg) inside them.
They`re waiting for the official certification from Guinness, but if you ask us,
they`re already penguinners. Now, if that sounds fishy, it`s because I`ve used it
before and I wasn`t flighten (ph) to use it aguin.
We`re creeling (ph) the punguin game on CNN 10. Some might call us the kings of it,
even if others think they`re for the birds. I`m Carl Azuz.
[Mr. AZUZ is playing with words]
