Artifact3-D offers a suite of functions for analysing 3D scans of archaeological artifacts. These functions are repeatable, objective, precise, and customizable. Functions are also available for the neat documentation of artifacts. Individual artifacts can be imported, analyzed and their documentation exported, or entire assemblages can be automatically analyzed.
