Adin Adnan Rashid Beg, Lutfiye Karasaka

This paper presents the use of terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) in order to effectively produce, prior to intervention, accurate and high-resolution 3D models of a three main ancient buildings with engravings in the city of Kilistra dating back to the Hellenistic and Roman period. The Cross Church (Haç Kilisesi) , Ceramic Workshop (Siramik Atölyesi), and Başpınar Cistern (Başpınar Sarnıcı) in the ancient city of Kilistra have been scanned by a Terrestrial Laser Scanner and a 3D modelings have been made of the scanned data. This process will be a first step in the operations of cultural heritage restoration in this region and The processed data with this technique can be used to systematically improve archaeological understanding of such complex structures.
