The Art of Making in Antiquity is an innovative digital
project designed for the study of Roman stoneworking. Centred on the photographic archive of
Peter Rockwell, this website aims to enhance current understanding of the
carving process and to investigate the relationship between the surviving
objects, the method and sequence of their production and the people who made
them. The resource comprises around 2,000 images, largely Roman monuments
with a selection of contextual sources, accompanied by analysis of the
working practices underlying their making.
