"Iruña-Veleia” is a mobile application for public use promoted by the Diputación Foral de Álava (Basque Country, Spain). It has been developed by Arkikus (www.arkikus.com).
The virtual reconstruction included in this app aims to show how the Roman city or Iruña-Veleia, located in Iruña de Oca (Álava, Basque Country, Spain), may have looked in the past, in an immersive and unique experience that shows, in a realistic way, ancient architecture and scenes of selected locations that are key to understand the history and evolution of this outstanding archaeological site.
All the digital content in the mobile app has been developed based on real graphic, documentary and archaeological sources for the reconstructed spaces. Where such original documents for particular elements are no longer available, parallel architectural and/or decorative examples from the same period of time, region and style have been used to ensure the greatest historical accuracy possible. The reconstructions included show an interpretation of the historical surroundings designed in conjunction with specialists based on the information available when the app was created. Future investigations may subsequently alter these interpretations.
