Six of the ten tiles of the Byzantium 1200 model are complete. I have divided the city into ten tiles as in Müller-Wiener's maps and started combining all of the reconstructed models with the land model. I am also adding imaginary houses for aesthetical reasons. The other 4 models plus an eleventh one for Galata will be completed until this summer and include all of the known monuments, walls, fora, ports, gates etc. The style of this model is partly inspired by the famous turkish cartographer M. Kerim Çalapverdi.

These models will be used as a base mesh for later additions and will be updated frequently. They will also be printed as a large map later this year. This will complete the first phase of the Byzantium 1200 project and I will continue with the Ottoman Period.
