Studies show the site was used for offering sacrifices. Tons of ivory works have been identified. But still, the totem and artifacts remain a mystery to many people.
Now in Jinsha, virtual and augmented reality are helping to unlock ancient mysteries. Even for archaeologists, these are improvements.
Rasmi Shoocongdej, an archaeologist from Thailand, said the technology helps people better understand reconstructions of the past, the ways of life, how people in the past built structures or artifacts, and how they appeared in this area.
The museum said it's trying to integrate technology to improve the experience for visitors. For them, solving the mystery of the ancient totem is appealing, but getting more people to understand it is more important.
