It aims to create a new research subfield by merging two non-invasive and non-destructive techniques — digital photogrammetry and experimental archaeology. While the experimental study will give new data on the details of rock art production, 3D modeling of the experimental specimens allows comparison with the prehistoric engraved stones. This fuse of methodologies reveals how the art was made down to a hand movement. <br> The project is focused on two case studies — the fragile collection of Mesolithic objects from Norway and the endangered portable rock art collection from Kamyana Mohyla, Ukraine. It aims to digitally preserve and study these unique datasets and apply new methods to show their significance and uniqueness worldwide. Moreover, as the two case studies represent similar economic and societal formations, the project benefits from comparing them to reveal features and similarities of the Late Mesolithic in Northern and South-Eastern Europe.Arts and HumanitiesSocial Sciencesexperimental archaeologyarchaeologyMesolithicsoapstonesandstoneAn asset of 3D models of experimentally produced artifacts related to the TEMPA-3D research project. It includes photogrammetric 3D models of soapstone, sandstone, bone, and antler objects with modified surfaces — including those that have been ground, cut, and sawed. <br> The dataset consists of 23 3D models and presents both the models themselves and the RAW image data that were used during photogrammetric procedures. The accuracy is approximately 0.2 mm.6500 BCE2000 BCE2024-01-012025-09-01UkraineNorwayZaporizhzhyaMyrneRogalandvillageprovince35.46644535.47154246.94899946.951063Individual material artefactThe experimentally produced dataset includes soapstone pieces from Rogaland, sandstone from the Southeast of Ukraine, and bone and deer antler material from Rogaland.

The materials used include soapstone, bone, and deer antler pieces from Rogaland, Norway, and sandstone from Mesolithic layers of the Kamyana Mohyla rock art site in Ukraine.All data are produced during the experimental sessionSoapstone pieces originate from and are kindly donated by St. Swithun's Cathedral in Stavanger. Sandstone pieces belong to the so-called layer B of the Kamyana Mohyla rock art site and were extracted during the excavation campaigns of 2014—2016. They were transferred and modified following the permission from the Institute of Archaeology of the NAS of Ukraine in Kyiv.Materials related to the dataset are stored in the Archaeological Museum of the University of Stavanger and are available upon request to the museum or by reaching out to the dataset creator.Digitally: external hard drives at AM-UiS and at the personal archive of data producer Data description: https://tempa3d.com/Archaeological Museum of the University of StavangerAvailable and openly accessible Original data is available upon request23 3D models, 123 GBThe dataset includes all experimental items that were included in the TEMPA-3D projectDr. Simon Radchenko, simon.radchenko@gmail.com<a href="http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0">CC0 1.0</a>Radchenko, S.
