The Monument Analysis Google Map and fieldwork was the
first part of our class group assignment. You can see a screen image of our
Google map below, there is a link to the site in the caption and at the end of
this post.
This first part required us to go to Christ Church
Cathedral (CCC) and Pioneer Square in Victoria. Whilst doing our fieldwork we
were expected to create a dataset in a database, take photographic
documentation, create a Google map (as seen above), and an essay that we handed
in.
When our group was deciding where to go we learned that
there was a columbarium in its basement of CCC that is open to the public every
Sunday.
Columbarium – “1: a structure of vaults lined with
recesses for cinerary urns”
Much of our work done during our fieldwork was to look at
unique monuments. We looked at monuments containing inscriptions of age,
education, “priest”, or if flowers were placed in front of the plaque. By
entering all of our collected data into a database we were able to see patterns
and trends. Unfortunately, for you the reader, I am not providing a link to our
database; however I am posting a link to our Google gap, which contains images of
all of our monuments.
I have included the link to the Google map site so that
you can see for yourself what our group did during our fieldwork.
