| Unfortunatly, there was very liitle archaeological data remaining on the mission site to inform a reconstruction of the mission. However, using 3d modeling software as a type of virtual blackboard, data from historic maps, archaeological investigtaions, and historic photographs was integrated into a model of Tucson's birthplace. |

The animations on these pages were created in 3d Studio Max. The Center for Desert Archaeology would like acknowledge the generous donations by Autodesk and Adobe that have made this research possible.
