As part of the Whispers of Caribbean Isles project, held at the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in Cambridge, UK, objects from the Caribbean were 3D scanned. The items were selected by participants in Cambridge and Trinidad and Tobago across three workshops that took place in April and May 2024. Below is a link to each object, alongside a brief description, a link to the MAA catalog entry, and a link to the 3D scan in Sketchfab which can be manipulated without any downloads directly from your browser (on mobile or PC).
